The CH24 Wishbone Chair is considered Hans J. Wegner’s most influential and iconic furniture piece. Designed in 1949, the chair became known as the ‘Wishbone’ thanks to its Y-shaped back that not only supports the backrest but is also comfortable. The Wishbone Chair is imbued with the creative talent of Wegner and represents the enduring soul of Danish design.
With a form that is uniquely its own, the iconic CH24 Wishbone Chair by Hans J. Wegner holds a special place in the world of modern design.
Mahogany is an exclusive hardwood species that grows naturally in tropical climates, prized for its captivating range of colours, which stretch from pinkish tones to deep reddish-browns. Beloved for its beauty, mahogany’s dark brown tone deepens with age into a warm glow. It is patterned with a flawlessly straight, smooth, and dark grain – a common feature of woods that grow in forests where the seasons do not change. The mahogany used by Carl Hansen & Søn is FSCtm -certified to support responsible forestry.
Besides from its mesmerizing appearance, mahogany possesses great strength and durability. It is a favorite amongst craftspeople for its ability to take intricate carving and the ease with which it can be worked on by hand.
The seat of the CH24 Wisbhone Chair in mahogany is woven with natural, FSC-certified paper cord. It takes a skilled craftsman one hour to weave the chair at the Carl Hansen & Søn factory in Denmark.
