I just bought this chair but haven't received it yet. I feel like I've seen it before(as always...!) but can't find it in the research I've done! Anyone have any ideas?

Looks like Finn Juhl for Pastoe.

Except is it actually Finn Juhl? I thought that was less than certain, and therefore more than likely not actually true...
Of course I could be wrong....

I don't know if it is.....I think it's worth the risk to find out. Any tell tale signs I should look for?

Here is a previous thread discussing this.

Ok an update, just collected my chair, and Leif you were right, it's not Finn Juhl. It has a sticker on it (picture below) saying it was made in Denmark by M. Nissan Horsens, model number 66. Did Finn Juhl do one similar, or is it just wrongly attributed?

I've seen that chair but never with the label. Ho ho! Nice!

Interesting! I've never seen it with that label either.
And I would strongly say it is NOT Finn Juhl.

Oh I agree, it's not Finn Juhl, it's just strange that the two chairs are so similar, his model 133 is shockingly like these, yet the differences are also striking. I always find it interesting that items like this made it to Ireland, after all in the 60's it was still considered a third world country.
