Carl Hansen & Søn marks the birthday of Danish furniture designer Hans J. Wegner on April 2nd with a reinterpreted, special edition of the iconic CH24 Wishbone Chair. This year we present the chair in a unique combination of FSC™-certified oak (FSC-C135991) and double woven paper cord. This special edition chair features a brass plate engraved with Wegner’s signature and date of birth and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
“The celebration of Hans J. Wegner, born on April 2nd, 1914, has become a tradition at Carl Hansen & Søn. Every year, we aim to create a vision which brings out something new to the integrity of the Wishbone Chair, without compromising Wegner’s original design. We believe that this double woven seat meets these requirements, and we are happy to share this exclusive edition of the Wishbone Chair with design enthusiast all over the world.”
KNUD ERIK HANSEN, CEO & 3rd GENERATION OF CARL HANSEN & SØN
