Icon - Wishbone

Also called the CH24 or Y chair, this piece is an icon in furniture design.



Designed by Hans Wegner in 1949, this piece is still today one of the most popular chairs produced.
It is classically beautiful, light and sculptural.
Craftsmanship is clearly the word to describe this piece with over 100 steps carried out by hand to produce.
And the seats are hand woven with paper cord that can last up to 50 years.
