Actually I'm not sure if these chairs are teak or stained oak, but the label says they were made by the Danish Furniture Importing Company Ltd.. Google didn't generate a single hit on this Toronto based company, but the chairs look mid-60's or so. They kind of faintly remind me of Hans Wegner designs. At some point they were reupholstered and one chair is missing a back slat. I assume they're dining chairs from their high backs. We scored them from one of our 'down-low' spots way west of Ottawa, $10 for the pair. I don't think they'll get used by us, as we already have the sweetest dining room set ever made by a Canadian in the last century (and to be featured here later this spring, so please check back!).
