Hey everyone, I've been searching to id a country of origin or manufacturer for a pair of dining chairs with no success. The closest my search has brought me is to H.W. Klein.
To my eye the wood is afromasia or walnut and my guess is it could be Scandinavian however the frame construction looks somewhat American. Any help would be appreciated!

That is Afrormosia. I've never seen it used in an American piece. Only Scandinavian/European pieces.
I feel like your guess of H.W. Klein (for Bramin) was a plausible one. Bramin produced some pieces in solid Afrormosia, e.g. Many Reenskaug rockers. And the company also had a very extensive line, some pieces of which are very rare, and I highly doubt every chair they produced is actually known. Bramin also was not so good about marking pieces in my experience. And the design looks plausibly like H.W. Klein.
And of course there are other Danish companies who might have made the chair, and occasionally solid Afrormosia pieces can indicate a Norwegian or Swedish origin.
