Can anybody tell me a contemporary manufacturer who makes this style? Unfortunately a second hand version of this would set me back too much

exactly what is shown here, Robin Day 675 Repro by Habitat. Can't say that table is Mr. Day though.

Hmm
I smell bullshit..
the picture is from a current eBay listing which quite clearly states where it is available from.. even gives the price pre-sale and the current sale price..

Nice try, Lit Up. I'm not going to lay into you like some would, but if you are spamming the board please stop. We've seen it done every sneaky way possible. It gets old. Thanks.

I don't think it's theirs
I just think they're lonely and need someone to talk to ..

Wow feel the love in here!...
Wow feel the love in here! Yeah that's from the ebay listing, no it's not mine, although if you really want a link to my eBay account I can give you, although I don't have anything to sell (I just buy lol).
I confess I didn't read the listing properly, either that or they hadn't included these details when I read it.
I'm a student and certainly can't afford a chair for £159 let alone six of them so yes, cheap knockoff certainly welcome.
I'm not spamming by starting a new topic, so I won't apologise. Maybe I'm just more interested in design than you? 🙂
Love x

as far as I am aware, Habitat furniture isn't available in the US
They're well made, nice looking chairs.

DAMMIT. I have wanted some Day in my life for far too long. But, it's fair I guess. SO many people want American designs they cannot get ... it's only fair that Americans are deprived of some good design too. BUT - I loooooove Robin and Lucienne's work. I vew many of their designs as slightly more practical cousins of some American designs...
The plywood chairs stack.
The benches don't appear to be as uncomfortable to sit on as Nelson .... and is a mix aesthetically of the Nelson and the Bertoia.
These dining chairs have the slim profile of armless chairs .... with arms.
And the wood frames sofas and chairs (forum series) are just sick. I dream of a completely worn leather set. A boy can dream.
If I ever write a hit song I am going to start collecting British ... the shipping alone is GASP!
