UM BUT HELLO DID YOU NOTICE THE PRICE???? 394???!!!
That is all.
Guys. Guys. There is now a way that your butt can be where J.K. Rowling's butt has been.
This is the chair, nay, the throne that Jo sat on while writing the first two Harry Potter books.

It has on it a hand-painted message from our queen herself: "I wrote Harry Potter while sitting on this chair."
It also has a message that fans would recognise as a quote from the Sorting Hat: "You may not find me pretty but don't judge on what you see."

The auction for the chair will be held this week, and has already recieved a starting bid over $65,000.

It comes with this letter, which reads: âDear new-owner-of-my-chair. I was given four mismatched dining room chairs in 1995 and this was the comfiest one, which is why it ended up stationed permanently in front of my typewriter, supporting me while I typed out Harry Potter and the Philosopherâs Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. My nostalgic side is quite sad to see it go, but my back isnât. J.K. Rowling.â
