SOLD
Early set of 6 Hans Wegner for Carl Hansen and Sons model CH23 oak dining chairs, circa 1960. New professionally installed paperboard seats, original hand oiled oak finish. Marked on underside with Carl Hansen and Son’s stamp. Beautiful detail and joinery on backrest. Very good condition.
Measures 30.5″ H x 20″ W x 20″ D x 17.5″ seat height
The CH23 dining chair is an early example of Hans J. Wegner’s unique style and insightful craftsmanship, and contains many well-known Wegner details – for example, the elegantly shaped cruciform caps on the backrest and the special double-woven paper cord seat. Wegner was a master in making complex designs appear simple, and despite the CH23 chair’s richness in unique detail, its appearance is ultimately light and simple. The chair has no armrests, which makes it practical for fitting around the table, even in small rooms. Thanks to its ingenious design and organic form, it is also unsurpassed for comfort.
