Hi, Can anyone tell me anything about these two pieces, the chair is fiber glass, and not marked, the table is a resin I believe and marked as shown. In doing reseach I cannot find anything like it that is the same vintage. Here are some pics.You can click on the single images to get a larger view. http://rubyarose.eaph.com/viewalbum.cgi?bobs/chairtable

Artemide
The chair is the "Mida" by Sergio Mazza, from 1967.
The "Ara" table also is from the late '60s but as indicated by the manufacturer's mark, is a design by Emma Gismondi Schweinberger (wife of the founder of Artemide). Here is a link to an Ara image from a period Artemide catalog.
Both pieces are fairly hard to find. Congrats!

Big dreamers
These have been listed on e/bay several times. I contacted the seller about the asking prices since they were not meeting their reserves. The prices they are asking is outrageous! Big dreamers.
