Pair of "CH25" lounge chairs by Hans J. Wegner

Pair of solid oak lounge chairs with hand-woven paper cord seats and backs. Hans J. Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn, designed 1950. The "CH25" was among the first four chairs Hans J. Wegner designed for Carl Hansen & Søn at the start of their collaboration in 1949-50, and it has remained in production ever since. The solid oak frame, with angled rear uprights and curved sled feet, supports a seat and back hand-woven in paper cord, a material developed during the war as an alternative to seagrass. Broad, flat armrests complete a design of remarkable constructive economy. Good condition. They may show signs of age and use. Please pay close attention to the photographs. AG599
