I've recently been investigating a maker/designer of my lounge chair before I bring it in for new upholstery. I've found a couple online shops selling it as Ib Kofod Larsen but haven't found any source for that attribution.

Here is my chair:

It looks sort of plausible. But you are absolutely right to be skeptical of unsourced attributions. And this one is particularly untrustworthy, because there isn't even a maker attributed.
There are also dozens of other designers who could plausibly have designed the chair.
I don't think you are going to discover who designed it very quickly, but I would spend the extra money to get it done very well because it is a nice chair. If you don't, and discover in a year or five that it is a moderately famous designer you are going to wish you had done it right and want to do it again and that will cost a lot more.

Thank you for the info leif, do see any elements that remind you of a designer? I'm really not too sure where to start looking. I've searched every Kofod Larsen source but no luck - just classified for the same chair in Oak, and the one listed in this thread in rosewood.
