Hi all,

I have a set of 8 teak dining chairs, all with arms.  The chairs are marked with the DUX branded stamp on the bottom side of the seat cushion.

I have spent hours trying to find the possible designer online.  They are similar to those produced by Sylve Stenquist for Dux but the back of my chairs are more slats than spindles.

Any help or ideas would be immensely appreciated! Thanks in advance.

photo orientation corrected.Makes it easier to view! A few other posters have had the same problem with images being flipped.

@retrofutura. Dux imported a lot of furniture, especially into  the USA. Initially it was mainly Swedish designers but later on, their American catalogues include furniture from Norwegian and Danish designers and manufacturers as well. It might take some time to pin this one down. Try searching for Dux adverts/brochures, in fact any print material .

It could also be an "in-house" design.

I have searched and found nothing definitive; will keep a lookout. Very often one finds the answer while searching for something else entirely!

They are lovely chairs regardless.

Thank you! I really appreciate your reply and insight.  Fantastic idea to look through Dux print material.  Will do that and report back with any findings.

@retrofutura. Looking  forward to see what you find. A fresh pair of eyes might turn up something I have not found.

Have a nice weekend.
