CH24 Wishbone Chair from Carl Hansen & Son
designed by Hans Wegner


Designed by Hans Wegner in 1949 and produced without interruption since 1950, the Wishbone Chair is a masterpiece of craftsmanship - and an icon of the design style which came to be known as Danish Modern. The CH24 Chair, known as the Wishbone Chair because of the shape of its back, is a lithe, light chair that is wonderfully suited for use as a dining chair. The Wishbone Chair features curved rear legs and a steam-bent, semicircular top rail that dually functions as backrest and arms.


The Wishbone Chair's frame is made of solid ash, beech, oak, or walnut. The seat is hand woven from nearly 400 feet of paper cord that can last up to 50 years.


Features:


  • 29.9" h | 21.7" w | 20.1" d
  • seat height: 17.7" | arm height: 27.5"

About The Manufacturer


The family-owned Carl Hansen & Son has been producing hand-made pieces since 1908. However, it was not until the late 1940s that the Danish furniture house, under the direction of Holger Hansen (the "Son"), joined forces with Hans Wegner and began a partnership that would help further not just the company but the entire Danish Modern design style. Wegner's unique, modern designs initially tested the company's production team as it had previously dedicated itself to more traditionally home-style pieces. Under Holger Hansen's guidance the partnership flourished; in the 1950s and 1960s the Carl Hansen Company and Hans Wegner both received international acclaim for their boundary-pushing work. One of the first pieces to emerge from this partnership was the Wishbone Chair, one of four chairs that Wegner designed specially for Carl Hansen in 1949. While the company faced difficulties during the second half of the 20th century, including Holger Hansen's sudden death in 1962, Carl Hansen & Son persevered and began the 21st century with a renewed focus, set on bringing Danish Modern furniture back to the center of the design world. Since 2001, when grandson Knud Erik Hansen assumed control of the company, Carl Hansen & Son has expanded in Denmark, continued to produce top-quality, hand-crafted furniture, gone on producing successful Wegner designs, and introduced new, previously unseen pieces from the legendary Danish designer.
