Benchmark scope
Original retail captured by selecting actual Miliashop options on29Oct2026: oak frame with Group1 Leather Ultra41599 is EUR1525, VAT included under retailer terms. This matches the wood and a base leather category, not the photographed unidentified nude hide grade/color. The separate other wood configuration is priced independently. At ECB28Oct2026 USD1.1133/EUR, the displayed price converts to USD1698, used by the existing model to calculate TRUESTCO $1458. Comparison here removes Italian standard VAT22% analytically: EUR1525/1.22 x1.1133 = about USD1392. This is a converted European reference, not a confirmed export quote or US price; destination taxes may differ. No savings claim is made because our model price exceeds this tax-normalized category reference. Six cost rows apply to this exact fixed paired finish and are model estimates, not invoices. Carton70x63x78cm,13kg gross and China-origin duty are assumptions. Legacy oak/walnut source specifications are kept separate from current Cassina ash revisions.
