I'm the man!
Nothern European, yes, but not close enough, robert1960 🙂
It actually a very rare fiberglass chair designed by the fantastic Nanna Ditzel in 1969 for Domus Danica. It was called "The Doghouse" because of the shape of the base. It came in white, orange, yellow and blue, both with or without armrests (connected to the back) or just as a stool.
I've never seen it in blue before, that's really a rare find.

Wow!
Actually the chair is one of a pair (both blue) that belong to a friend of mine. He is a starving artist and will be thrilled to get this news. In addition to creating his art, he collects modernist furnishings from yard sales etc. Thanks again everyone for your help!

Really? Well, then please also tell your friend that I, a collector/fan/friend of the Ditzel family, am really really jealous 🙂
