I have a book with almost all stamps, labels, tags etc. on Danish furniture, though it's at home and I'm at work now.
Could you tell some more about the chair, about the logo on the chair or post a picture?

designer name?
I can tell you I found what looks like the same chair on senzatempo.com. Its called Danish walnut wicker side chair. The one they show has an ottoman with it. The only difference is mine has a different cushion with it. I appreciate your help, Thank you.

It looks like a typical Danish Modern lounge chair.
You should try www.furnitureindex.dk, search for Jacob Kjær and see if you can find a picture of this chair in their online library.

Thank you for the information. I tried it and only one chair came up for Jacob Kjaer. I will just continue to look. Thanks again. I appreciate your help.

Only one? I just tried typing Jacob Kjær in the "Designer" search box and I got 177 hits of which at least 30 were chairs. Maybe it's because you haven't got the letter 'æ' on your keyboard. I tried "ae" but with no luck.
Anyway, I looked them all through but I can't find a similar-looking chair except one. Try typing "JK C-41" in the "Model" search box.

Thank you so much. You are so nice. I just want to sell this chair and make sure I have all the right information for it. Im planning on putting it on ebay. But I was also really curious. Im glad I was, I have learned a lot about Danish chairs. Thank you again.

"JK" might stand for the manufacturer "Juul Kristensen." I have three chairs marked "JK" and "Made in Denmark" and it turns out they were designed by Hans Olsen for Juul Kristensen. Check out furnitureindex.dk to see if your chair matches up with any from that company.

danish side chair
I need to know how to go about getting the wicker back of my chair fixed. It is from the 1940's and I would like to sell it, but I believe I would get more if the back is fixed. I would appreciate any info on what to do. Thank you.
