Bertoia Diamond Chair

“In The Devil Wears Prada, the covered Bertoia Diamond Chair by Harry Bertoia for Knoll softens its airy wire frame into something more private and controlled. In Miranda Priestly’s office, that matters: it keeps the modernist elegance but removes vulnerability. It’s luxury that is protected, not exposed, just like her.”

“One of my proudest Craigslist/FB Marketplace accomplishments was successfully doing this. I first had my eye out after watching the Netflix series “One Day” (the heroine has one in her home office); eventually spotted a listing for two faux Bertoia chairs; sussed out that one looked actually maybe quite possibly authentic; secured it at a serious discount; and then befriended the seller, who later followed up to say he checked with his ex, a vintage furniture dealer, and she confirmed that mine was, indeed, the real McCoy. The link explains how to spot them, if you’re interested in looking.”
