I built that model in the photograph in 1980 for MoMA. It is part of their permanent collection and I doubt very much that it is for sale. The cost of building that model was very high and its worth is certainly more than $6900. At that price they would be giving it away.The model cost more than the actual cost of building the house. It is fully detailed inside including furniture. I wrote a book about its construction called “Fallingwater The Model” published by Rizzoli. Anyone posing as a seller or who might represent a “seller” should be viewed with great scrutiny.
