Chair from Finland and armchair  

The lounge chair appears to be model 118 (not the later model 128) by Grete Jalk for France and S

Hi Leif, thank you so much for your help. Here another picture of the secretary. Do you have any reference (book, link) to it?

Thank you

Ernest

sorry if I can't tell you more than just posting these bad quality pictures, but that's all I have as these items are on sale on a local site. I have been looking to buy a secretary for years and this one seems affordable. I've googled the hints you gave but had no luck. I also looked into the 40 years of danish design but no luck too.

Thank you!

Ernest

I see now in the other photo that the secretary is a different design.

Hi Ernest,

A Finnish company which produced a lot of spindles designs was Nesto.

Their chairs were typically 'imported' by other local brands, to widen their catalogue

with affordable alternatives, such as Pastoe in the Netherlands.

The chair could be Nesto.

Hi! Very good hint. It looks like it's a Tapiovaara chair for Nesto, indeed.

Thank you very much. It would be cool to find out what the secretary is now. It seems that the whole household has good pieces.

Cheers

Ernest.

Nesto was a Swedish company, not Finnish.

Too late for the secretary, someone has bought it already. Thank you all for the very nice help anyway!!!!

I stand corrected! Sweden it is.
