Dear AT,
I just bought this set of four dining chairs at a local flea market for about 35€ (which is about 40 US$ I guess).
They look like they're Scandinavian design, but I'd like to know if anyone recognizes a designer, or a date (50s, 60s, 70s) or can tell me anything about them.
Are they worth anything?
Thanks! Daniel

I don't know anything about them but they sure are great! nice find!
i wish 35 euro = 40 dollars
They are lovely, and if they were $40 each, that's a real steal.
The look very Jens Risom to my eye, which if they are LUCKY YOU!
I have a set of 4 of these, identical in every way, except that the upholstery is fabric. They're stamped with 'made in Denmark' on the bottom, no other identifiers.
Mine are getting wiggly, and need to be tightened up, but I don't know how to do this without damaging them!
I was gonna joke that 35 euros is probably about $60... then I checked it out on a currency converter site and found out that it really is. Well, 54.5885 USD, to be exact. Still pretty scarily close.
I have a set of 6 and a table that look exactly the same (down to the upholstery) from a consignment shop in ohio...mine were 80's era Mobler.
The US Dollar to the Euro is now what the Canadian dollar was to the USD for most of the 90s. I feel your pain.
It's great for exports; our manufacturing base is rapidly collapsing since the Tories let the dollar go to par with the USD.
Thanks for your answers everyone, I'll se if I can find more about them, and the next time I'll verify my currency conversion first ^^
By the way theserovingeyes, no it was 54.5885$ for all four :-)
thanks to all
