Danish Cane+Teak Chair?  

Can someone tell me how to upload the photo?  I thought I attached the .jpg file to the email where it says "attach file" but it does not show up now.  Thanks again.

File size has to be less than 2MB.

You can only attach 1 file/image at a time  and submit.

You then choose the edit function; choose another file ; submit and so on.

Thank you!!

@dvk.Following a quick initial search ,I found a chair by N. Eilersen; designed by Illum Wikkelso, model 25 (but not allowed to post links to websites, Forum rules).

Cannot find an image anywhere else.

Thanks, Lexi!  This is awesome.  I spent hours looking, and had not found anything.  That certainly looks like the chair.  Someone long ago must have replaced the paper cord with rattan and put on the fabric seat.  Will see if I can find a way to have it restored.  Thank you again.  Really appreciate it!

@dvk. Sorry for the short reply earlier. Was heading out to work.

Did you find the website I was referring to? If not ,this chair was discussed on the Forum in 2015 and a link was provided and not removed by admin. So here is the thread; no images as they disappeared at some point during an "upgrade".

Last post gives link to the website with the info.

Image of chair that was an ID query. Found when I googled some more which led me to that thread.

Thanks again!  Yes, I found the site with the ad.  But this photo is even better.  And it looks fantastic in paper cord!!  I really appreciate your help!  

I've got the #25 in corded natural beech; which has been waiting in the basement for 6 years to be restored. Your chair appears to be teak. I've never seen any of the 25 (or 23) chairs in teak before, only natural or stained beech.

While the seat straps and upholstery certainly do not look original, I would not dismiss so quickly the possibility of the cane backrest being original. It does look old, and reweaving Danish cord is easier than cane. Perhaps there was a time where they offered a teak and cane version of the chair as a premium upgrade? Just a guess on my part, but the appearance that the frame is teak does make your chair different than most.

@cdsilva. The Danish Furniture Index has a model 25 GTU made by  Aage Pedersen. Teak frame but fully upholstered.

Interesting. I was not aware of that version. The seat framing does appear to be much deeper on the Pedersen chair than the corded Eilersen and OP's chairs.

Thank you both.  This is fascinating, although it makes it a little trickier to decide what to do!

And it might be worth mentioning that Aage Pedersen’s company was known as Stilén. 

I‘ve asked the Wikkelsø estate. They have never seen a cane version.

Thanks. Not quite sure what to think about who designed and/or how best to restore. Welcome thoughts. Thanks again for all of the information.
