Selrite circa 1965
Best information I have leads me to believe that these chairs are by Selrite and manufactured sometime around 1965.
I will mention that this Selrite attribution is not authoritative (if it were i would have cited historical reference). It is based upon other information I have gathered about similar Selrite designs of the time period which suggests that these chairs are by the same manufacturer based upon similarities in construction methods and materials used.
I believe that I can safely state that they are not designed by Paul McCobb as there is nothing in the historical record to support a Paul McCobb attribution.
If anyone has any better authoritative information about this design I for one would love to see it.

Been trying to I'd this one for 15 years
Found these nested modernist tables in an Australian thrift shop about 15 years ago. They are chrome plated steel with beveled edged glass. I think they might be by the U.K. Company PEL.

Tick I believe your tables...
Tick I believe your tables are a Bauhaus art deco design By Mart Stam for Thonet model B97 either that or they are a copy of them.
edit....I saw a set of these recently in a catalogue as being a deco piece, they are a little curvier than the Thonet ones but maybe try looking the Bauhaus German route or have them looked at by a German auction house.

Thanks Killian
That brings me another step closer to finding the origin of the tables. Some of the Bauhaus designs were made under license in Australia, so that would fit in. I have tried to id your table and chairs listed above, but as beautiful as they are, not seen any sign of em.
Cheers,
Tick.

Can anyone help ID the rocking chair? Sorry about the bad quality (photo isn't mine). The fabric is like a scratchy wool.

this was presented as an ID question in an earlier thread. One is present in a photograph at Farnley Hey in Yorkshire depicted in Lesley Jackson's book, Contemporary. Are you in UK?
