Hans J. Wegner
CH28 LOUNGE CHAIR
Sharp and shapely lines contrast beautifully in this highly appealing chair. Hans J. Wegner’s CH28 Lounge
Chair, designed in 1951, is as functional as it is sculptural. The chair was put into production the following
year and is a carefully considered design capturing many of the master’s signature elements. The
CH28 Lounge Chair – closely related to Wegner’s famous Sawbuck Chair – is the essence of excellent
craftsmanship and showcases Wegner’s dedication to finding the optimal balance of function and visually
attractive form. Noteworthy details include elegantly rounded armrests, wooden cover caps that contrast
with the grain of the wood, and the intriguing dynamic between the slender, sweeping seat, the curved
backrest, and the round legs.

Hans J. Wegner
CH44 LOUNGE CHAIR
The CH44 Lounge Chair from 1965 by Hans J. Wegner is simplicity
perfected. The chair features Wegner’s characteristic, defined joints
between the front legs and armrests and grooves on the top of the
rear legs from which to hang a back cushion. The armrests slope
upwards towards the rear legs, becoming more slender as they rise,
thus elegantly strengthening the vertical joint. The overall effect
appears striking, and the result is comfortable.
