The CH23 dining chair wasone of the first chairs Hans J. Wegner designed exclusively for Carl Hansen& Søn in 1950. The pieces he created at this time were not only unique butalso set new standards for modern furniture design with their artistic expressionand ergonomic form.
Although the CH23 chair mayappear uncomplicated at first glance, it incorporates many fine, sophisticateddetails, among them the elegant cruciform cover caps in the backrest, adouble-woven seat, and arched rear legs that ensure optimal stability.
Carl Hansen & Sønreintroduced the CH23 in 2017, once again making the first masterpieces part ofits collection. As always, the design remains true to Wegner’s original,hand-drawn sketches, with all aesthetic and structural components intact.
