How can I tell if a womb chair is real?
To tell if a Womb Chair is real, check for the Knoll logo and if Eero Saarinen’s is signature engraved on the underside of the chair. These are original markings that should not exist on knock-offs. Another thing to check is the stitching on the chair, an original will be tight and perfect. Shop a large collection of Womb Chairs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
