Arkana
Pretty sure it's an Arkana chair, made in Bath, UK. They seem to come up now and again on ebay.

I think I've seen this in an old auction catalogue - OMK or maybe Pieff? I'll try and check when I get a moment

Sure, sorry it was late!...
Sure, sorry it was late! It's called the Orbita chair (part of the Orbita range), Arkana also produced a matching ottoman for this chair. See link below for an original image of both chair and stool. I'm not sure when it was designed, I'm guessing around 1971-72.
