How can you tell if a Milo Baughman is real?
1 Answer

How to tell if a Milo Baughman is real will differ depending on the type of piece. If you're trying to authenticate a chair, look for the flat metal bar frame that is indicative of the designer’s work. For casegoods and tables, every inch of the surface should be finished. Baughman believed that even the backs of bookcases and cabinets should be as visually appealing as their fronts. Studying images of genuine pieces published at trusted online resources can also be helpful when authenticating any type of Milo Baughman furniture. If you need assistance verifying authenticity, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Milo Baughman furniture.
