Danish lounge chair CH25 designed by Hans J. Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn

Danish lounge chair CH25 designed by Hans J. Wegner in 1949. It has been in production since 1950 at the renowned furniture manufacturer Carl Hansen & Søn. The CH25 is one of the first four chairs that Hans J. Wegner created exclusively for Carl Hansen & Søn at the beginning of their collaboration. It was the first time that woven paper cord was used for a piece of furniture, something that caused a great stir at the time. It takes a skilled craftsman 10 hours and approximately 400 meters of paper cord to complete one seat and backrest by hand. This item is a more recent example and is in very beautiful condition.
