LOL...sorry I am not trying to be secretive! I actually missed that!
Its a classic mid century modern design and actually quite common. The chair is designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and is known as the "Barcelona Chair" It was unveiled in 1929 at the Ibero-American Exposition, which was hosted by Barcelona, Spain.
You can either find knock offs for around $600-800 per chair or originals (not made in 1929 but made by Knoll Studio these days) for $6000-$10,000 per chair. The difference is noticeable
I am a huge Mid Century Modern fan...so I could go on all day! I try to collect as many pieces as possible. Gets more expensive than aquariums if you can believe it!
Not the best pic but my favorite piece is in the far right corner of the room in this picture...
Just realized...I have no idea where the Barcelona Ottomans are in any of these pics! LOL. The chairs look funny without them...
