Mid-century love: The Falcon Chair by Sigurd Ressel

I'm completely struck by the 70's Falcon chair by Norwegian designer Sigurd Ressel. Often over-looked, the Falcon is an iconic piece of Scandinavian design - the entire seat is a hammock suspended on a wooden or metal frame. It seems like pieces such as this are often over-looked amongst the Eames reproductions (don't get me wrong I still love an Eames!) and difficult to come by...and expensive (these things are always investments!).
But that soft, aged leather is calling to me.... if only I could find that spare $3k?
