Would you pay $22,000 for a chair in this economy?

CARBON22_01 California-based Orange22 sure is hoping the answer is yes. The company has just announced the limited edition Carbon22 chair. Designed by Orange22 founder Dario Antonioni, the $22,000 chair (which doesn't include shipping) is crafted from 100 percent carbon fiber. The design, they say, is inspired by flight and in a wind tunnel each piece creates streaming flows of air.


A flight enthusiast, Antonioni reasons it's not just a chair; it's art. At that price, it had better be. How would your clients react to a $22K price tag?
