Hancock & Moore find, missing tag.
I found this beautiful Hancock and Moore office chair(https://www.hancockandmoore.com/Prod...?SKU=9572ST-PL) on Craigslist for next to nothing. It looks like the tag has been pulled off. It is in mint condition, and I have thought about selling it to someone who would appreciate it more, but is there anyway to prove it is Hancock and Moore/will a buyer of a piece like this care if the tag is missing?

Re: Hancock & Moore find, missing tag.
On a tight seat version, there is no way to open the seat cushion and look at the core construction which would be stamped with markings if a separate seat cushion. So that answer would be there is not a way to positively identify it.
I've never seen a sticker on an H&M Piece that identifies the Clean Up Person and Final Inspection Person, however. That's a curiosity. Doesn't mean they didn't do that, just I've never come across one.
It certainly looks like a Hancock and Moore unit, that's a fairly unique chair that today would cost over $ 3,000 new in a GR 3 leather (which is what that appear to be). I don't understand why people will sell their expensive H&M for almost nothing, makes no sense.
Re: Hancock & Moore find, missing tag.
It appeared to be someone who clearly did not work in an office, tasked with selling a bunch of furniture from an office that was closing down. I looked high and low for any dupes of this chair, and can't find anything. Still, would probably make it hard to sell. I did just notice "101701" is stamped on the main part of the metal on the bottom of the chair, not sure if that could help identify it at all?
Re: Hancock & Moore find, missing tag.
If you bought it from one of those used office furniture sales places, the "cleaned and inspected" tag is probably from them, not H&M.
I think from the look and construction along with the link to the current model, someone buying it would have confidence it is genuine. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
