Hans J. Wegner 'CH07 Shell' 60th Anniversary Lounge Chair for Carl Hansen & Son.
 
The story of Danish Modern begins in 1908 when Carl Hansen opened his first workshop. His firm commitment to beauty, comfort, refinement, and craftsmanship is evident in iconic pieces designed by such legends as Hans J. Wegner, Arne Jacobsen, Kaare Klint, Poul Kjærholm, Vilhelm Lauritzen and others. Now in its third generation as a family run business, Carl Hansen & Son maintains its legacy through skillful work with the highest quality materials, sustainably producing Danish design classics by past icons and influential new designers.
 
With a form uniquely its own, Hans J. Wegner's 'CH07 Shell' chair embodies iconic Midcentury design and is considered one of Wegner’s most groundbreaking pieces. The design’s floating lightness is achieved through its wing-like seat and curved backrest held by a frame with three arched legs, resulting in a piece that is equally beautiful from all sides and angles.
 
This authorized limited re-edition celebrating the 60th anniversary of Wegner's iconic design is expertly crafted by Carl Hansen & Son in FSC-certified Santos rosewood and oak with or without sustainable leather upholstery from organically raised Danish cattle.
