Definitely very recently the DFI updated the index with these chairs, attributing them to Henning Kjaernulf and from 1965 no less. Very strange and unexpected both date and designer.

I know they weren't on there when I found these as there was no Korup Stolefabrik or Korup anything when I searched. Having said that, the DFI is entirely fallible. The Nissen spade-looking rocking chair is still listed as a Finn Juhl design on there among plenty of other discrepancies I've seen.

The media source given looks fairly promising. The DFI has its flaws but usually they don

Definitely assumed it was later. I was thinking firmly in the 70s given the shape. And especially the teeth joints, reminiscent of later Danish designs.

I thought I'd repost the link since it seemed to stop working, and I've referred two people (including mrhappi, on here) to it recently. It seems like the entry is being updated and that means it's lost.
