"Peacock" chair JH 550, Hans J. Wegner, Johannes Hansen, 1960

The Peacock chair was designed in 1947 by renowned Danish designer Hans J Wegner, who was inspired by the beautiful Windsor chairs. The name Peacock was given by a fellow architect and designer, Finn Juhl, who noticed for the first time the appearance of feathers from the back. The sturdy chair is entirely made of solid wood, with a paper rope seat. The wooden slats have been designed to keep the back perfectly straight, with the flat parts placed where the shoulder parts meet the chair. The large backrest and armrests add extra comfort. Although the chair was first produced in 1947, its modern lines and extravagant backs look just as attractive today. A true work of art! Top. seating. 37cm
