Bought this at auction, the auction house identified it as Torbjorn Afdal "Rio" chair from 1964 but I have not been able to corroborate that.

So the auction house got back to me about their documentation... seems legit although I still can't find anything online about it.

@raijin. The top left chair looks like model "Stuart" and made by Nejestranda Mobelfabrikk,one of the manufacturers that Bruksbo outsourced production to. 

According to Mats Linder model"Rex" is made by Sandvik & Co.( another of Bruksbo's manufacturers)

 Have sent Mats a message to see if he knows which factory made your chair.

Will post any info here.

just for once that an auction house has a reference to a piece of furniture...
