OK, so I got a couple posts today, since my wife and I are cleaning out the basement this weekend, and I had a fair number of 'projects' and 'puzzles' stored away down there....
I picked up these tables a few months ago, and they have strong resemblance to the Siesta model line for Westnofa. They were not marked, but I know Westnofa often used adhesive labels that would fall off with normal use.
They are bent ply. Not sure what wood species the exterior veneer-ply is, but it appears to be stained. Tops are a really nice, 3/8" - 1/2" thick, smoked glass. Dimensions are all to the whole centimeter:
Side table: top - 55cmx70cm, height - 42cm
Coffee table top - diameter 90cm, height - 42 cm
The rubber plugs that fit into the wood frame, and keep the glass from sliding are all gone, but for one (I am interested finding out if someone knows where more could be purchased?). The previous owner thought that the rubber plugs went towards the floor, lost most of them, and replaced with the wool-type adhesive floor pads.
In my searches on the net, I have seen a few of these out there. Some unattributed, some attributed to Westnofa and Ingmar Relling, none of which were what I would consider a 'solid' attribution. So I am hoping someone in the DA community has some more information, something that might lead to a more conclusive identification.
As always, thank you all for expertise, love of design, and time.

Thanks Leif. Anything I did not already know, is useful .... and I had no idea on the wood species, so much appreciated.

I recently picked up a set of two Siesta chairs by Ingmar Relling with the same round coffee table like the one you have. With the thick brown colored glass top.
The previous owners bought it as a set, the chairs are still marked, the label of the coffee table is gone, but the size of the legs of the coffee table are exactly the same size as those of the chairs.

Thanks Don. That helps a bit. Keeps me on the path towards Westnofa. I would still really like to find someone that still has a marked piece, a catalog, or other solid piece of information.
Your set looks great. These tables clearly match up well with the chairs. Still on the fence as to whether I will keep them or not, but they are currently filling the table void in my basement. Maybe I need to get a couple chairs to match, and then keep the whole thing as a set.
Thanks again for the additional info!
