Danish looking rosewood(?) chair  

It's walnut!

Needs reupholstery though.

Can you take a very sharp closeup of the grain on the armrests and another of the legs?

How about a photo under the seat too?

Don't think I can get much sharper I'm afraid.

I am certain it's walnut though, I think the one arm has quite a bit of sapwood so it looks like a little like rosewood. Unless it's a mix of woods.

I really can't identify it.

The photos are pretty big if you right-click on them and then click "open image in new tab" or whatever.

That upholstery! but the seat looks like it was done correctly so far, at least.

I know, it was one of those half projects clearly! That will be the biggest project for me.

But it's the Vodder-like arm rests that really got me. The lady said it was stuffed with horse hair, etc, so I reckon it's the very early side of mid century, it definitely doesn't look traditional aside from the upholstery.

Well I think the arms are European walnut. The legs are probably something else.

Thanks Leif, I think the legs are as well, just sapwood. Emphasis on the I think. The big below the chairs right arm looks like burr too.

I do wonder if it's Danish or just Danish inspired. Definitely old.

Looks like it is all European or English walnut to me. I have a dining set that has this type of color variation, as well as a HiFi. The European variety seems to have much more color variance, as well as much lighter tones, as compared to the North American variety. It also seems that there are many pieces that have the lighter tone all the way through the thickness, not just the outer sap wood layers. The figured arm is likely a crotch piece.

Handsome chair, once the upholstery is fixed. I agree with you Kyle, looks pretty early.
