... looks inspired by Wegner's CH35 chair design.

@amber5.      Very similar to Farstrup model 213; some sellers claim it is model 233;  no labels shown.

Image of model 213. Compare to your chair and you will spot the differences.

@lexi, thank you very much for your help! I also found this chair once you mentioned Farstrup no 233

@amber5 Cool. Theodor Harlev was the main designer for Fastrup back then, he also designed the chair @lexi came up with first, so my guess is that your chair is also a Harlev design. Theodor Harlev was a solid designer although certainly not on the forefront of Danish modern. His work often was heavily inspired by other desigers. Wegner might have been an influence in this special case als cdsilva pointed out.
