Details

In 1944, Hans Wegner began a series of chairs drawn from portraits of Danish merchants seated in Ming Chairs. Among them, the Wishbone Chair, completed in 1949 and in continuous production by Carl Hansen & Søn since 1950. Hansen recognized in Wishbone something the market lacked: a lighter counterpoint to the period's prevailing heaviness. Steam-bent solid wood, a woven paper cord seat, and joinery refined over decades of Danish craft practice – the chair is built not for a room, but for a lifetime. Made in Denmark.
  • Perfect for the dining room, living room, or home office.
  • Steam-bent solid wood frame with handwoven paper cord seat.
  • Signature Y-back serves as both backrest and armrest, providing its beloved silhouette.
  • Requires more than 100 steps to produce, most carried out by hand.
  • Authentic Wishbone Chair from Carl Hansen & Søn.

Hans Wegner

Hans Wegner stands among designers Finn Juhl, Arne Jacobsen, Børge Mogensen, Poul Kjærholm and Verner Panton as a master of 20th-century Danish modernism. More specifically, he was instrumental in developing a body of work known as organic functionalism. His early training included both carpentry and architecture.
