Hello Newton81, You're not alone... There are few of us who can afford what we really want .. So.. Given that you understand that replica means just that.. You are getting more or less what you pay for.. things can still be made well but not carry the "name" but it's true... Some replicas or copies are not made that well.. So it's wise to look around.. The other thing to consider too is that things are often priced because of the "name" So.. It's good to really look carefully and think on exactly what it is you're spending for.... Useful chair or the name! (yes beauty and design..) Sometimes a copy is as good as the real thing.. and if it means having more in the pocket, then even better... Who said a rolex had to be real! It's cool 2 b a copy! : ) ) Clients come with all manner of ideals and budgets.. big and small.. So finding ways to achieve the look they want at the price the wallet can afford is something that has to be considered.. I have picked 2 with an addition of an armchair.. I think it's nice to have an armchair for the heads of the table.. but maybe you don't like that idea... see the link below.. It's not Vitra! but... See what you think... Look at the returns policy and materials.. then decide which way you want to go.. ask about damages etc and weigh up the cost of a copy vs the real deal... My big love is the Cherner chair... I'd love both of them : ) ) http://www.swiveluk.com/uk/charles-eames-style-dsw-abs-plastic-chair.html Guests http://www.swiveluk.com/uk/charles-eames-style-daw-abs-plastic-chair.html for the heads of the table.. Maybe you buy 3 copies for the price of 1 original.. Then you replace gradually..

A single 1m wide slab of Oak was used to create this lovely table. Two coats of lightening finish were used to give a gorgeous Skandi look topped with three coats of our eco-friendly, non-toxic and completely bulletproof hardwax-oil in matt. The minimalist look was completed by the satin black powder-coated trapezoid legs. Close-up photos show the woodgrain pattern and Dark American Walnut bow-keys before and after being embedded. _____________________________ HANDMADEinBRIGHTON.com, creators of stunning #liveedgewood tables and superb #bespokefurniture

This 2.7m x 1.2m natural-edge dining table plus matching bench was the finishing touch for our Surrey client's new kitchen-dining-living room.

The rest of the furniture will be (1) light beige / oatmeal Camerich lazytime sofa, (2) black square wooden coffee table (3) and a black modern desk So all the furniture are rather contemporary but the room feels elegant/classic and that walnut table is too small and mid century Will share a pic once all the boxes are out!
