How much are you willing to pay for a kerusi ?

 13 is such an unlucky number. So they say. Here is Leonardo Da Vinci's  Last Supper.

There are 13 people in all sitting for supper at this table. Some 'conspiracy' theorists say that the person who is No. 6 from the left has very feminist features. You can zoom in. That the dinner guest "No. 6" was actually Maria Magdalena (Mary Magdalene). Considering who she was (you can Google her name)  this would make this painting scandalous indeed. Even more scandalous was the suggestion that it was she who was the "Holy Grail". It was an unlucky number indeed.

The most expensive chair in the world is known as the Dragon's Armchair.  The Dragon's armchair, the most expensive armchair, surpasses the price of all others at US$34 million. Eileen Gray designed this chair over a hundred years ago.

 

                                        What an unbelievably ugly piece of furniture.

 

So for how much would someone pay (or sell) a kerusi ? Remember there are absolutely no political funding laws in Malaysia. It is not a crime to pay for or to get paid for expensive kerusi like the Dragon's Armchair.
