Wegner’s elegant CH71 lounge chair and CH72 sofa now available
Hans J. Wegner designed the CH71 lounge chair and CH72 sofa in 1952, drawing on expertise in cabinetmaking and upholstery. The result is a finely crafted, fluid design that appears as striking today as it did over half a century ago.
With its slender frame and flowing, sculptural form, Hans J. Wegner’s CH71 lounge chair and CH72 sofa design is a testament to the legendary Danish designer’s unique understanding of woodworking and upholstery. Created in 1952, the design shows all the hallmarks of the ‘Master of the Chair’, including a seamless unity of form and function, and a refined aesthetic that has remained effortlessly contemporary throughout the passing decades.
As well as being a highly skilled cabinetmaker, Wegner possessed a thorough knowledge of upholstery techniques, allowing him to conceive complex pieces requiring expert craftsmanship. The furniture set is one such design, with cushioned curves that wrap flawlessly around a slim, angular frame.
The designer also gave great consideration to the set’s proportions, resulting in streamlined pieces that can add style and softness to even the smallest of spaces. With an array of textiles to choose from, the pieces can be upholstered in a variety of colors and textures, while the legs and handles are available in oak and walnut with various finishes.
