Description

Distinct in design, the CH24 Wishbone Chair (1949) by Hans J. Wegner is a remarkable piece of modern design. The chair showcases Wegner's innovative approach where he unified the back- and armrest into one continuous piece. This design choice results in the characteristic Y-shaped back, lending the chair its name and providing both comfort and stability to the steam-bent top.

The manufacturing process of the Wishbone Chair involves more than 100 steps, predominantly executed by hand, underscoring the artisanal craftsmanship invested in each piece. Notably, the hand-woven seat, crafted from approximately 120 meters of paper cord, takes a skilled craftsman about an hour to complete. This detailed process ensures the seat's durability and stability, contributing to the overall strength and longevity of the chair.

The Wishbone Chair is not only practical in use but also aesthetically appealing. Its unique form makes it a standout piece, adding a touch of elegance to any space. Over the years, it has been recognized as a classic example of modern Danish design, widely appreciated for its blend of comfort, stability, and style. Made in Denmark.
