Hi,

Found this chair at a thrift store for $5. It has wool fabric upholstery. The wood frame does need to be refinished as you can tell in the pics.... Any ID???

thanks,

It's similar to the designs...
It's similar to the designs of Ib Kofod-Larsen, but I can't say for sure. It resembles his 'Seal-chair' for OPE. Never seen this particluar model though...

Nice chair
but the Porsche is totally worthless. I'll take it off your hands for say... 5$ 😀

Lovely chair--
but who was the original owner-- a coal miner? Fortunately, those grubby arms are easily cleaned.
Sure looks similar to the chairs in the "Help Identifying Danish Modern Chair" thread (Ib Kofod-Larsen)--
And, where are there thrift shops that sell chairs & loveseats for $5-$10? Not even Salvation Army sells that cheap.

thanks for the replies
The 928s4 is a fun car on weekends... I live in Paso Robles, California, and we have about 200 wineries in a 30 mile radius, with fun twisty roads nearby. Also, great to cruise up scenic highway 1 past Hearst Castle to Monterey/Camel area....
Unfortuately, the thrift store where I got the chair burnt to the ground recently. There are a number of good backups to shop like Goodwill. Not to much folks around here into Mid Century Modern... Other examples of things I picked up cheap. Chair $9.99, and nightstand from 1959 $29.99 Goodwill finds....
