What is Authentic?

Holds or increases in Value

David Lewis, author of Authenticity: The Soul of the New Consumer states, "To the uninitiated such fine distinctions might pass unnoticed...  For New Consumers, the differences are a matter of pride and reassurance.  Not only do they indicate membership of an exclusive club, but they also carry the stamp of authenticity."    ONLY AUTHENTIC, LICENSED DESIGNS ARE SOLD AT ACCURATO.COM

Why buy Authentic?

"As the speed with which new and original products are transformed into commodities reduces, those that can be reproduced rapidly fall in value.  Authentic products and services offer the best value for the money since they are superior in quality, more reliable in use and likely over time to maintain their value, or even increase it," adds David Lewis. 

What is a Knock-Off?

This is a copy of the original design and does not carry a copyright or licensing agreement.  It normally is inferior to the original due to cheaper materials in the frame and upholstery and often is made in China.

Loses Value Immediately

Knock-offs will normally be advertised with a different name than the original and be of slightly different dimensions so that the manufacturer can escape liability of existing copyright laws.  In some cases, the price of the knock-off is the same or a bit less than the original as the seller assumes that the buyer does not know the difference.  The details of construction are inferior to the original.

Educate yourself and ask questions

Who is the contemporary furniture manufacturer?  Is this an authentic product?  Is this product licensed and copyrighted on behalf of the designer?  Does this product come with the designer signature stamped in the frame?  What are the dimensions?
