[Edit. Sebastien's in luck! François ID'd them as the model 71 lounge chair, designed by Ms. Bodil Kjaer in 1959 and produced by Hovedstadens Mobelfabrik. Thanks François! Here's an auction result for one chair, where the hammer fell at ~$1,000.
Any chance, Sebastien, you inherited a Kjaer desk too? The one featured in two James Bond flicks, and that Prince Philip uses at Sandringham Castle? You'd be sitting on $30,000+...]
Sebastien’s looking to sell this pair of chrome band flat bar lounge or club chairs, purchased in the 1970s… but has no idea who the maker is.
Can you help?
They’ve got a bit of a Milo Baughman for Thayer Coggin feel to them, but aren’t one of his designs I’m familiar with.
The cube style base also riffs slightly on the Wegner JH 801 chair below.
If you’ve got an ID, please let us know in the comments!

François, you’re brilliant and thanks so much!
For those curious, here’s a link to a Decopedia entry on the chair. And a profile of Ms Kjaer.
Sebastien, you owe him big time. And since I know your next question will be how much can I sell them for… can’t hazard a guess – don’t have enough access to auction results. Any idea, anyone?
I think I replied in the wrong section so again many thanks!!! P.S. Jen, I don’t have the table
But now that I know what to look for 
… hehe
OMG you are fabulous Francois thank you so much!! How the heck did you know?
I initially thought they might be by Preben Fabricious & Jorgen Kastholm but I eventually found out they were by Kjaer when I spotted one in Decopedia…
