Some of the older models do in fact have the screws on the back rest supports. It's shown on some of the photos on the official Eames website.

I have these chairs purchased from an authorized HM dealer in the early 1990's and they 1) don't have the fabric tag 2) have a spreader bar that is a separate piece of aluminum connected with two screws on either side 3) don't have the embossed ID number in the aluminum frame and don't have a fancy tag identifying it as Herman Miller. I forwarded photographs of my Chair to Herman Miller and they assured me that it was authentic. Have there been design/fabrication changes over the years or????

The fabric tag and the lack of screws for the spreader bar are details only found on the Vitra chairs - they are not on the Herman Miller or ICF made chairs

This video only applies to Eames Aluminum Chair manufactured by Vitra. The Herman Miller manufactured Eames Aluminum Chair have screws on the back spreader.

I have one of these from Herman Miller I picked up on eBay back in 2012. $300 for a nice original chair. This one is in the brown fabric and was made June 11th 1988 (from the year I was born). I love it and what else is fantastic is it actually cracks my back! There is just enough give in the fabric at the top so when I lean back, it pops my back in all the right places! Great multi-use chair! Haha

I think early models have something on the back of the chair, at least there are 2 spots on that side of the chair. On herman miller website there are photos showing that area of the chair and there are 2 spots, like screws. In the book, The furniture of charles and ray eames by vitra, on page 98-99 there are screws on the back of the chair. I think what I say is true for earlier models. Anyone?

Bis vor ca. 10 - 15 Jahren hat Vitra die Stühle mit den 4 Schrauben geliefert, um den Rückenbügel zu befestigen. Danach hat man auf die Schrauben leider verzichtet und der Rückenbügel wird zwischen den beiden Trägern geklemmt. Die Behauptung es handele sich bei den Stühlen mit Schrauben um Nachbauten ist schlichtweg falsch.

Vitra chairs didn't have those tags in the center, yet they had screws on the edges of the rear handle. Currently, Herman Miller sells these chairs as outdoor variants. And your link findmetheoriginal.com forwards to a porn website.

So the main difference are the Vitra stickers and numbers...? Well that totally explains the extra 2000$ one has to pay...Eames wanted the best for the most for the least - the only one ripping off Charles and Ray Eames is Vitra!!

I'm afraid I have to agree (if so only years after your comment). After reading about Charles en Ray Eames and watching a documentary about their vision, I don't think the prices of these chairs justify that. Frankly, I'm willing to pay for an Eames desk chair, but not the outrageous amount that Vitra (or Herman Miller) asks for.

There are differences between the various types of Aluminum Group chairs. I think the original design has been kind of lost to time right now, especially because the originals that get sold today are just so expensive. Barcelona Designs is a great site for a replica of this chair. Nothing like the original but definitely high-quality.
