Can anyone help me find France and Son. I think the company was bought by Poul Cadovius which is now Cado. Any of these will do. I have 2 boomerang fd 134 chairs without legs. Im happy to make new but nee the technical design data. Many thanks

France & Daverkosen
became France & Son and then Cado in 1964. There is a franceandson.com that sells reproduction pieces and is definitely not the original France & Son.

I'm not sure most companies are going to be too willing to provide "technical design data" so that others can manufacture (bootleg) their chairs or chair parts, but I wish you luck in the quest.

H.moon can speak to this...
H.moon can speak to this better than I, but in the case of France and Søn I don't think you are going to get any such information if it even exists.

You will note
that exactly 2 minutes after the France & Son trademark expired in 2014, that the "new" France & Son was born. People who make reproductions are not stupid.
