Manufacturer: Carl Hansen

Designer: Hans j Wegner 1955

To mark the 100th anniversary of Hans J. Wegner's birth, Carl Hansen & Son is launching Wegner's CH88 chair - a 1955 design that has, to date, existed only as a prototype. One of Wegner's few designs combining wood and steel, the CH88 is a versatile chair updated for today's needs.

The CH88 is versatile both in terms of its appearance and usability thanks to its numerous finish, frame, and room placement options. Characteristically, the upper structure features a steam-bent wooden backrest for back support, with slight curvatures of the backrest's ends providing a natural resting place for the arms. The steel frame, with straight back legs, supports an oval-shaped wooden seat. This blend of materials, combined with a minimalist design, results in a light, organic, industrial expression. And the new, stackable design offers a valuable benefit. The CH88's overall flexibility, coupled with its many variants, makes the chair equally well-suited to multiple environments - from the living room to the hotel restaurant or corporate canteen.

The CH88 s available in beech and oak in a range of finishes. The frame is available in stainless steel and black powder coating, and the seat with optional leather or textile upholstery.

CH88 chairs can be stacked upto 4 chair high.

Also available in Lacquered finish, please contact one of our team for more information.
