Sometimes called the “smiling chair,” Hans Wegner’s Shell Chair (1963) achieves a floating lightness with its wing-like seat and arching curved legs. It stands on only three legs, but Shell has absolute stability, owing to Wegner’s expertise in cabinetmaking and architecture. His belief that a chair “should be beautiful from all sides and angles” is especially evident here, a marvel of grace and beauty. This is the authentic Shell Chair produced by Carl Hansen & Søn. Made in Denmark.
  • Iconic lounge chair from legendary Danish designer.
  • Extremely stable three-leg design.
  • Conforming curves and leather upholstery for comfort.
  • Made in Denmark.
  • Cowhide varies from piece to piece, making each cowhide Shell Chair unique.
