I picked up this interesting teak chair with integrated desk combo in Ottawa, Canada about 12 years ago. There are no identifying marks or tags on this, but it's very solidly made.I've attempted to search online for anything like it, but alas...nothing!I use it regularly as my office desk chair, The design is well thought out - comfortable as a regular chair, but equally good if using it as a desk, sitting inverted facing the desk.It's a small profile chair: 23" wide, 27" tall x approx 24" deep with the teak "desk" part folded down(the teak folding "desk" portion measures 11" x 23") It certainly looks to be a danish modern/ mcm piece...and any info on this piece would be most appreciated. Thanks,sue

No idea on your chair, but someone has recent take on the idea. Would almost think they had seen your chair or one like it.

Aha ! That second design explains the full usage of the piece, doesn't it ? I had thought only that the chair/desk was made for a local college or school -- to be used in rows, with the seater behind using the desk ahead. Probably not ?
