CH24 The Wishbone Chair - dark grey lacquered beech

Hans J. Wegner

Carl Hansen & Son celebrates Wegner's
100th birthday

On April 2, 2014, Wegner would have turned 100 and Carl Hansen & Son is marking the occasion with a special tribute to the man behind such iconic designs as the Wishbone Chair, Shell Chair and Wing Chair.

ORDER WISHBONE CHAIR AT GALLIANI HOST + GALLIANI.COM ON APRIL 2ND.

All Wishbone Chairs ordered on April 2nd will bear the date and Wegner's engraved signature.
The engraving is made on the wood’s surface with a laser, reproducing the signature with a high degree of detail in keeping with Wegner’s high standards of craftsmanship.
The engraving will be discreetly located on the underside of the chair.

 

The Wishbone Chair is a classically beautiful, light and sculptural dining chair that is also perfect for simply relaxing in.
The top rail is gently steam-bent to provide freedom of movement and excellent comfort. The chair is a masterpiece of craftsmanship.

More than 100 production steps are carried out by hand, and the seat is hand woven from 120 metres of paper cord that can last up to 50 years.
Hans J. Wegner designed CH24 for Carl Hansen & Son in 1949, and the chair has been produced without interruption since 1950.
Carl Hansen & Son launched a pallete of 12 new colours to celebrate the Wishbone Chair's 60th anniversary in 2010.

A light, attractive and comfortable dining chair with the characteristic Y-shaped back. The chair is a triumph of craftsmanship with a simple design and clean lines.
