I have seven pieces of Mid-Century Furniture that I need some info on. Possible designer and type of wood? I am trying to sell but need to know first this information. I know these were made in Sweden. My mom mentioned something about Monkey Pod wood and I have heard maybe Teak and also Mahogany... I need help please! I have two pics. THANKS 🙂

more photos
It's difficult to tell from a single photo. Could you post more--or a link to a host site that has more? And I presume you've checked the back, bottom, and drawers for a maker's mark?

These pieces doesn't look very Swedish to me. If so, they would probably be by a US designer who had their furniture manufactured in Sweden, possibly Edmund Spence. Where are you located Tambeau?

mid century set
the wood looks like matched grain african mahogony.they bleach it then stain it the color they want.really hard to refinish because when you sand it,it turns red again because only about 1/32 of an inch is bleached
