CH28P Lounge Chair
By Hans Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn
Description
The CH28P Lounge Chair includes many of the designer's characteristic design features. The chair, which was put into production the following year, is not only functional, but also very comfortable. The armrests are carefully rounded and has an interesting dynamic between the slender, sweeping seat, the curved backrest and the rounded legs. The CH28P lounge chair seat is available upholstered in a variety of leather. It is also available as the CH28T lounge chair model with a solid oak frame and seat and back in oak or walnut veneer.
Oak/walnut is a mixed version combined with a frame in oak and armrest in walnut.
CH28P was designed by Hans Wegner. Wegner is arguably the most important figure in Danish modern furniture design. Early in his life, Wegner apprenticed under a cabinetmaker and was eventually educated at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. In 1938, he worked on furniture for Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller's Aarhus City Hall. By 1943, he opened his own design studio, where he would design some of his most famous works. The peacock chair was designed in 1947 for Johannes Hansen and thanks to innovations from designers such as Eames and Aalto, bent plywood shell chairs by Wegner began in 1948. Both the Wishbone and Round Chair were in introduced in 1949 and have since become two of his best recognized works. Over his career, Wegner designed over 500 different chairs and countless other pieces including tables and cabinets. The attention to joinery, craft, and material have helped to make his name so revered.
