Design Hans Wegner, 1970
Stainless steel, saddle leather
Made in Denmark by Carl Hansen & Son

A variation on CH112, this elegant meeting chair is equally at ease in the office or boardroom. It gets along famously with the rest of the collection, but is also confident enough to stand on its own. Seat and back in saddle leather; available with or without armrest pads. Also available in the gold edition.

Hans J Wegner trained as a cabinet-maker before attending the Copenhagen School of Arts and Crafts, where he later lectured from 1946 to 1953. From 1938 to 1942, he worked as a furniture designer in Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller's architectural practice. In 1943, he set up his own office in Gentofte and collaborated with Borge Mogensen in the design of an apartment shown at the 1946 Cabinetmakers' Exhibition in Copenhagen. Throughout his long career, he has designed furniture extensively for Johannes Hansen and Fritz Hansen. The Royal Society of Arts, London made him an 'Honorary Royal Designers for Industry' in 1959.
