Product description
Hans J. Wegner Wishbone Chair. These soft grey Wishbone CH24 Color Chairs are made of FSC certified beech wood and were purchased on March 10, 2012 from Fabrieknl (now MORENTZ).
The Wishbone CH24 chair marked the beginning of the collaboration between Hans J. Wegner and Carl Hansen & Søn, founded in 1908. Introduced in 1950, it has remained in continuous production, a testament to its durability and timeless appeal. Wegner, born in 1914 in Tønder, Denmark, designed nearly 500 chairs during his career. The CH24 is part of a series of chairs inspired by portraits of Danish merchants sitting on Ming chairs, an oriental influence that shaped its aesthetic, as detailed in How An Iconic 17th Century Chinese Chair Inspired Two Danish Design Classics.
The Wishbone CH24 chair is one of Wegner's most famous creations. The production of the CH24 is a meticulous process, requiring more than 100 steps, mostly manual. The seat, woven from paper cord, takes a skilled craftsman about an hour to make, using 120 meters of material to ensure exceptional stability and durability.
These 4 were purchased in 2012 from Fabrieknl (now MORENTZ).
Some paint is chipped where the front of the arm rest meets the table and minor scratches on the back of the seat, but the paint remains intact (no chipping). On one of the chairs, the paint is chipped on the spine of the chair. Also, there is some discoloring on 3 of the cord seats.
