Or do you mean the ones built with the clinker-method (not that many of the above isn't build this way)?

Well, being a dane, I would say the danes - walsted springs to mind, but the norwegians would go for someone else, the brits for something third, and the fins will, well, they'll put a knife in your stomach and have another drink (ooh, the fins I have met hate that taunt)

Frankly, I don't know - it kind of depends what defines "quality" to you, adn which type of finish you're thinking of. Denmark definately had the best quality furniture designers/woodworkers back in the days, but it certainly depends on what you want, how you want it, and what specifically you mean by "finish" (lacquer etc, or the actualy wood work, the design etc.).

I think if you want to have an exhaustive foray into this, you will need to make another thread. It's not a cut and dry answer. Far from it.
