I'm not on facebook (hate the whole idea) so I don't know the group. Or what they used as reference for that claim? If they have a reference,...
Not that it matters - original Knoll Butterfly chairs are welded not hinged :angelic:
The Mitchell tag on top is probably the retailer, or the business where these chairs were used. You have four chairs; do any show the label...
