Product Details

Product Description

The CH24 chair can be found in Ash, Beech, Oak, Walnut, and Mahogany with various finishes such as Soap, Lacquer, Oil, White Oil, Smoked Oil, or Painted NCS colors, and a Natural papercord or Black papercord seat. Leather seat cushions are also available for separate purchase. The presented price is for the Beech version with Soft Colors and a Natural papercord seat. In 1949, Hans J. Wegner designed the CH24 chair specifically for Carl Hansen & Søn, and it has remained in production since its launch in 1950. The CH24 boasts a distinctive, individual form that has become iconic in modern design. Wegner fused the backrest and armrest into one unit and employed a characteristic Y-shaped design to provide stability to the steam-bent top and offer comfortable support. The chair requires more than a hundred steps to make, with most of the processes completed by hand. The skilled craftsperson who handweaves each seat takes about an hour and needs around 120 meters of paper cord, a material renowned for its robustness and durability, to create it. The resulting chair is strong, durable and visually appealing with its elegant form. Denoting the essence of modern Danish design, the CH24 is renowned for its aesthetics, comfort, and durability. The sculptured shape and lightness of the Classic CH24 chair by Hans J. Wegner enhance the appearance and functionality of any space. Regarded as one of the most creative, inventive and productive Danish furniture designers ever, Hans J. Wegner created almost 500 chairs over his lifetime, with many of them acclaimed as masterpieces. He is particularly renowned for his iconic CH24 chair, which has been in production continuously since 1950. Wegner's furniture design's unequivocal strength lies in bringing the furniture's interior workings to the outer shell to appreciate the simplicity and functionality.
