Hi I'm going to see this chair at the weekend, it has similarities to the Arne Norell Safari chair, as well as big differences. I don't think it is by Arne Norell but I do think it's a lovely chair! Does anyone recognise the chair? These are the only pictures I have!

So I found this matching sofa online but no hints to a designer or company. It just mentioned it was solid ash and Norwegian. Other than that I'm all out of ideas!

It very much looks like it could be Bruksbo out of Norway.
If not its a starting point. Cheers.

Thank you vintageobsessive!! You were spot on! The seller wouldn't negotiate on price so I'm not buying it, but it's still another piece of info to file away!

That's too bad. It's a great looking chair.

It really is! I told him to come back to me if he changes his mind, but I'm sure someone else will see the beauty in it that can afford it!!

Very nice! There is just no substitute for well worn, broken in leather with that aged patina.

I have some old Norwegian catalogs, I can look in them and see if it is there. Bruksbo is. And I remember a chair at least similar.

Ah well, thanks for checking Leif! The chair isn't my usual style but really fits in well so I'm very happy!
