The World's Most Expensive Office Chair

Friday, December 11th, 2009

We came an across an interestingly little blog entry the other day, the world’s most expensive office chair.  We couldn’t resist and of course had to delve deeper.

The Most Expensive Journal talks about the Aresline Xten being sold for a whopping $1.5 million, so we had to take a closer look.  Developed by Pininfarina (better known for designing ferrari’s) it features everything you’d expect from an ergonomic chair, adjustable arms, lumbar pump, movement system – but even we were struggling to justify the cost.  So we dug a little deeper, the actual story is that it cost $1.5 million to develop, and actually retails for more like $1,600.  So whilst it’s an expensive chair, it’s certainly not the most expensive chair.

If you want to see an expensive office chair (but not the most expensive office chair), check out the full story here.
