Sculptural Support in Coordinated Colour
Hans J. Wegner's CH468 Oculus Chair combines a generous upholstered body with an open, eye-shaped detail in the back. Its carefully shaped surfaces support the neck and shoulders while allowing you to settle into different seated positions. Soft curves and sloping armrests give the chair an inviting presence, equally suited to reading or taking time to unwind.
This special edition pairs Gabriel UMI wool upholstery with a painted frame in a coordinated colour, giving the sculptural form a softer, cohesive expression. Choose Clay White, Pebble Brown or Deep Burgundy, each paired with its corresponding UMI fabric.
Special Price
As well as the special finished, these stunning editions come at a very special price, less than half the price of the equivalent pieces upholstered in Group 10 fabric. Woven in virgin wool, Gabriel's UMI is soft, natural and wonderfully tactile. It’s upholstery to be enjoyed up close, inviting you to settle in and get comfortable.
Craftsmanship & Finish
A solid internal wood structure provides strength beneath the upholstery, while the slender painted frame balances the chair's generous proportions and reclining posture. Gabriel UMI is made from 100% wool, with a rich, voluminous diagonal twill that adds texture and softness to the upholstered surfaces.
