An icon for future design enthusiasts

Known as ‘The Master of the Chair’ and designing over 500 chairs in his lifetime, Hans J. Wegner’s 1949 CH24 Wishbone Chair is considered by design enthusiasts all over the world as the most iconic. Coveted for generations and admired for its simplistic, sculptural appeal, Carl Hansen & Søn is delighted to present this cherished design for a younger generation of future design enthusiasts. The CH24 Children’s Wishbone Chair follows in the footsteps of the original design, specifically redesigned to achieve exacting proportions where a simple downscale would not achieve the same balanced aesthetic. The chair consists of 14 solid oak components designed in collaboration with Wegner Design Studio and crafted by skilled craftsmen at Carl Hansen & Søn. Taking over 100 steps to hand-finish and assemble, it features Wegner’s signature handwoven paper cord seat in an envelope pattern that takes a skilled craftsman one hour to achieve.
