I acquired these three chairs for $40 in upstate New York. Love them too much to sell them at this point. They really need only minimal work (some light steel wool and reconditioning), though one of the chairs' upholstery was ruined by a cat...Don't mind the awful bluish fabric, I tore all that off, revealing the original brown upholstery underneath.
Regardless, they are very high quality in both design and construction and I believe them to be Erik Bucks; however, we have all seen this style repeated again and again...
My apologies for the low res pictures...
Thanks in advance for the suggestions!

I don't think so.
Erik Buck chairs have a "floating" seat. The edges of the seat don't touch the sides of the chair frame.
They look more like D-Scan, made in Thailand. I have worked on D-Scan chairs. They're nice quality but they're only Danish in style.

Good point
Thanks for the lead. The floating seats are definitely ubiquitous on the Erik Buck chairs...Hm.
I failed to mention that underneath the seat there is a faded red stamp that says "Made in Denmark". They do look like D-Scan, though...
Regardless, I love these chairs. My original intent was to sell them (they were my first potential flip), but I fell in love and ended up keeping them...

Hi heavyasmountains, did you ever find your answer? I have a set of 6. There is someone selling them on design addict as Erik Buch.

I don't know if this helps or gives an official attribution but said I'd add the link!

So I heard back from Erik Buch....they couldn't find these chairs but stated that the family didn't keep good records. I guess it's a mystery that won't be solved! It would also lead me to believe that they are not designed by Erik Buch. Anyone else care to weigh in?
