Hi Guys,

I just picked up this pair of chairs a couple weeks ago. The only info I got was that they were possibly from a store called The Happy Viking, a Danish import chain in the USA. There is no factory marks to be found anywhere these dudes. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you~
Wow, thank you so much. I wasn't expecting such a quick response. I looked for info on these for about 2 months with no luck. Not too much info available on these dudes they seem to be quite obscure. How did you happen to come across info on them? Thanks again.

Jacques Guillon Designers
You can find a picture of this chair in the book "Le design au Québec" by Marc H. Choko, Paul Bourassa and Gérald Baril. They call it a garden chair (1967-1974). The Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec (MNBAQ)has one in its collection (donation of M. Morley L. Smith).

I have a set of 4 Michel Dallaire, Jaques S. Guillon Habitat Garden Chairs. Hoping to find out what the current value is for them.
