Hello all,

my husband's grandmother bought two of these chairs in Denmark when she lived there from 1957-1959. She always said that they were prototypes designed by Hans Wegner but they never went into production. She bought a lot of furniture designed by Wegner and those furniture are all marked but these chairs don't have any markings. Does anyone here recognise these chairs, we are really curious to know more about them.

If Kurt Østervig designs Wegner prototypes then why not?

@leif-ericson. Good reply Leif; 😆 

Kurt Ostervig was my first thought when I saw the chair above : those chunky floating armrests are so him.

Thank you so much for this information! My mother in law will be glad to know more about her chairs. Now I just have to google Kurt Ostervig 🙂
