CHINA CHAIR <br />

HANS J. WEGNER 1944<br />

The China Chair was designed by Hans J. Wegner, in 1944 and<br />

it stands out as the only remaining solid wood chair in the Fritz<br />

Hansen collection. Wegner found inspiration for this timeless classic<br />

in Chinese chairs from the 17th and 18th Centuries. The China<br />

Chair epitomizes his lifelong quest to understand the nature of<br />

wood and explore its possibilities. In Wegner’s modern interpretation<br />

of ancient Chinese chairs, he unfolds his talent as a wood<br />

craftsman along with his �air for expressive and sculptural functionalism.<br />

The China Chair comes in cherry wood or black coloured<br />

ash with a leather seat cushion.<br />
