Wegner built the fully upholstered easy chair upon a solid
beech frame that rests on hand-finished stainless steel legs.
The composition showcased his excellent understanding of
material and structural dynamics and resulted in a dramatic,
sculptural silhouette with instant visual appeal.
The true beauty of this sophisticated work, however,
lies beneath the surface. Hidden out of view is a seat and
backrest design that enables a variety of positions,
always providing superb support for the back, shoulders,
neck and head. The thin legs, slightly higher in front than in
back, give the chair an ideal pitch.
Designed in 1960, the Wing Chair was originally produced
in very limited numbers, and relaunched in 2006 based on
Wegner’s original design. The Wing Chair is available with
the matching CH446 footstool for added comfort.
Hans J. Wegner’s Wing Chair takes us on a fascinating journey through the
talented designer’s skills and aesthetics.
