I just bought this bentwood chair. Was originally a set of two the other one was sold :/. Supposedly from the sixties. The leather which is really nice quality is attached directly to the frame and there seem to be a strip of teak or mahogany in the middle of the otherwise layered beechwood frame. Overall it feels like quality. I did searches on the above names but came up none the wiser. hope you guys can help out. No visible marks that I can see but there is what could look like leftover glue from a sticker at the bottom.

Are you in Denmark?
I am pretty sure they're not Mathsson. I thought at first they might be Rastad Relling but now that I see that edge detail with the darker wood, I'm not so sure.
I love your pine floor.
