Louis in 1990.
And we are here to see if they're legitimately Harry Bertoia for-- knoll, that's what we're hoping.
APPRAISER: Harry Bertoia was a great designer and even better artist, but he did make some iconic furniture designs, and he worked with the great manufacturers of the day, like Knoll.
I'm certain, without inspecting these too much, that these are Harry Bertoia chairs.
GUEST 1: (gasping): Oh.
APPRAISER: He made them... GUEST 2: (laughs) APPRAISER: ...in various sizes.
You know, there's child size, there's dining chairs.
The design is 1952, but they've been in production ever since.
They look relatively early.
They might be '60s or '70s.
At auction, a pair would probably sell for $300 to $500.
GUEST 2: Nice.
Oh, perfect.
GUEST 1: Thanks.
Thank you.
GUEST 2: My-my dad spent $20 on 'em.
GUEST 1 (laughing): Yeah.
GUEST 2: So a good deal.
