Anyone recognize this? Could it be a frakenchair? Pieces from another chair put on an eames wire base?

Thanks!

It's not an Eames base. They have feet on them, this just has rubber caps on the ends of the metal rods.
I think it's just an older Danish chair with the general look that was popular then. I lived there for a year and saw a fair number of chairs like this. I went to a flea market once where there was a huge lot of chairs similar to this one---very rusty legs, beat-up wood. They had come out of a school, I think. They were super cheap and I was tempted but I passed--too much work to get them looking good and I had no real need for them myself and no outlet for reselling them there.
The thrift stores always seemed to have at least one of these old knock-offs. Oh, and the big box hardware/lumberyard/homegoods stores and Costco-type stores sold new knockoff Jacobsen 7 chairs! They were everywhere!
