"Many foreigners have asked me how we made the Danish style. And I've answered that it...was rather a continuous process of purification, and for me of simplification, to cut down to the simplest possible elements of four legs, a seat and combined top rail and arm rest." -Hans Wegner

In 1944, Danish design legend Hans J. Wegner masterfully designed the China chair for conference use and private homes. This elegant chair follows the guidlines of Wegner's designs by using beautiful wood and quality craftsmanship. A classic piece of Danish modern design.

Hans J. Wegner is one of the architects and designers who made Danish Design world famous. Wegner inscribes his name in the history of design first and foremost via a range of tables and chairs which are without predecessors in furniture design, yet stand in their own right as the most natural thing in the world, inevitable like new letters in the alphabet.

The China Chair comes in two types of solid wood: cherry or black-colored ash. The chair has a seat cushion upholstered in your choice of leathers.
