Manufacturer: Carl Hansen & Søn | Designer: Hans J. Wegner, 1949

The Chair That Defined Danish Design

The very first model Hans J. Wegner designed exclusively for Carl Hansen & Søn, the CH24 Wishbone Chair has been in continuous production since 1950 - a rare distinction that speaks to the enduring rightness of its form. The gently rounded top rail flows into the characteristic Y-shaped back in a single steam-bent piece, combining backrest and armrest into one continuous curve that is as structurally considered as it is beautiful. Light enough to move around a table without thought, and comfortable enough to stay in long after the meal is finished.

A Scandinavian design icon, the CH24 pairs its solid wood frame with a hand-woven black paper cord seat, light enough to move around the dining table with one hand.

This version is finished with black paper cord - a striking alternative to the natural cord that gives the Wishbone a sharper, more graphic quality. It pairs particularly well with darker wood finishes such as oak smoked oil, oak black lacquer, or walnut, though it reads equally well against lighter woods for a bold contrast.

The Craft Behind Each Chair

More than 100 steps are required to produce a single Wishbone Chair, the majority carried out by hand. The hand-woven paper cord seat alone takes a skilled craftsman approximately one hour to complete, using around 120 metres of cord per chair - the result is a seat that is exceptionally durable, stable underhand, and visually striking from every angle.

  • Dimensions: W55 × D51 × H76cm (seat height 45cm)
  • Frame: FSC™-certified solid wood; available in beech, ash, oak and walnut

Hans J. Wegner, designer — portrait

Hans J. Wegner

Hans J. Wegner (1914–2007) was a Danish furniture designer, renowned for his significant contributions to modern design and the Danish modern style. Often referred to as the "Master of the Chair," Wegner created over 500 chair designs during his career, many of which became iconic symbols of mid-century modern furniture. Wegner's designs emphasize functionality, minimalism, and organic forms.

He often worked with natural materials like wood and incorporated traditional craftsmanship into his pieces. His work continues to inspire furniture designers today and remains highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts.
