Yes, it certainly does. I have an identical chair but without the logo, and don't have photos at present.

I have a little book about a Belgian producer,
who, back in the fifties and sixties sold designs by other brands too.
There's a picture in the book of an interior on the Expo of 58 in brussels wich shows a chair like yours, but with a high back and the same striking design in the back legs.
It is described as a chair produced by Doka / Sweden, a producer who apparently charmed my local furniture firm.
Hope this helps!

No problem
I took a pic of the specific page, you'll see the chair I'm talking about in the foreground, the text under the pic speaks about it being Doka, a firm from Sweden.

Hi bj, I'm afraid the description of the picture in the book is wrong, Dokka (not Doka) was a Norwegian furniture maker and not Swedish, and I suppose the shown chair is not by Dokka, furthermore the shown label above is not the Dokka label.

Hi Onno
All respect for your knowledge or power of determination.
Only, I didn't state the chairs were Dokka, but Doka. I also said this firm (following the book) is swedish, not norwegian.
I know Dokka from Norway and I am very aware this isn't a design by them.
