Stunning teak on this highly unusual chair, which I like to think is sitting on skis and which may make this an easy ID for our illustrious members here. Reminiscent of Peter Hvidt in style - but actually has a little more personality I think

@m4r3x5p3ctr0n,

Sometimes it's helpful to know the geographical location where the piece was found.

FWIW, here in the US, we say this style has sled feet or a sled base.

Carry on!

OK - 'sled' feet - yes makes sense, I guess you would say the same here in the UK too, where we don't get much opportunity to either ski or sled, unfortunately. Downhill on this would definitely be 'sledding' in style ; )

The wood is not teak either. Maybe Afrormosia or maybe something else.

OK - thanks, yes, again, nothing wrong with a bit of Afrormosia, but any pointers on maker(s)?

Well if it is Afrormosia that indicates a suggest about where. The British possibly. Maybe Norway. Or a few specific danish makers.

Hmm... yeah, I'll keep researching them.

Thanks for your help.
