CH110
Hans J. Wegner’s CH110 desk was,
aesthetically speaking, a significant departure
from the master’s usual style.

In 1970, Wegner came up with an exclusive office concept
consisting of a desk, an accompanying chair, and an easy
chair. The series represented some of Wegner’s finest
– and most distinctive – steel-framed furniture.
The desk in particular introduced a new and unexpected
balance between the slender industrial legs and the sizeable
wood tabletop that lightly rests upon them. Merging function
and form with his trademark detail-oriented approach,
Wegner equipped the desk with long, sleek drawers finished
with dovetail joints and small yet bold stainless steel handles.
The drawers are, of course, thoughtfully designed with
flexible interior compartments.
A part of Wegner’s CH100 Series, whose relaunch began in
2008 in celebration of Carl Hansen & Søn’s 100th anniversary,
the CH110 desk was put back into production in 2011.
