After scourging the web for hours, I cannot seem to find nearly anything similar to these two pieces. Both of them have the same design, one larger and the other more slim and feminine. Appears to me to be either two different styles by the same maker in the same period or a his and hers lounge chair set. Both Black Vinyl, Both with rounded and sculpted wood frame. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions. Pretty stumped.

If you find out who actually designed them,, are you going to pull the eBay listing and delist for more?

Leif,
Price will stay the same regardless but for my own sanity, Id like to know who made them. If you don't know anything about them, feel free to post another passive aggressive remark ;]. for me, its always interesting to learn about new designers and styles for my business or to help others. if anyone else has any info I would greatly appreciate it.

I think that as guesses go Arne Hovmand Olsen is a pretty good guess.
There are a few Danish chairs that have similar characteristics to the larger one. Specifically the back rest curving into the arms. Ib Kofod Larsen designed one for Christian and Larsen. And there is a chair that was made by Slagelse Møbelfabrik that was on eBay recently that was similar.

Leif, you are an awesome person! Incredibly nice and great at this. You are a huge asset to this website.
You have helped me in the past with your extensive knowledge as I'm sure that the
rest of us would concur with that assessment. Keep up the fine work! 🙂

Leif,
As terry stated, you always seem to be the most knowledgeable person in the room on the identification thread. Not sure if either of those are an exact match, but its more info than I had before. Thank you.

Absolutely not an exact match. The large chair seems to be a form that was tried quite a few times, probably by different designers, and it was never very successful it seems.
I don't think you are going to identify them with the resources available on the web at the moment.
