Good Questions: Where Can I Find These Folding Chairs?

Kathryn is looking for some info. She writes, I have two folding chairs that I purchased at a flea market back in 1992 or so... I would love to get two more just like it, but am having trouble finding the same structure/framework in this folding chair. I did see another one a few years ago at a sidewalk sale and am kicking myself for not grabbing it right there and then. Does anyone recognize this chair and have any idea where I might find one or two more?

These chairs have been sold in the late 80's by Ikea.
I had four of them... When I moved two years ago, two of them were in a such bad state that I had to get rid of them. But because I loved the design too, I decided to keep the two other. They are now waiting in the cellar for a fix and some new color...

these chairs have been on craigslist santa barbara recently...

Ikea? I thought they were Habitat(oh how i miss Habitat!)....

hmmm...my mom has two in a natural pine that have exactly the same lines- I'll ask her where they came from...

I think I've seen something similar at World Market.

I own a very similar one (in the structure at least). Mine is called Skip Folding Chair by Calligaris

I just came across these similar chairs on craigslist; the poster said they came from Walmart: http://annarbor.craigslist.org/fuo/1186455503.html

Thanks all for the good leads and suggestions,
I'll be looking into these new avenues!!

If you don't have any luck with those other avenues, I have 2 black ones identical to that one that I might be willing to sell to you. You can e-mail me at chinikki08 @ gmail.

Best of luck!
