## Summary

Mid-century modern dining chair featuring a signature wishbone-shaped backrest, a woven paper cord seat, and a solid oak wood frame.

## Description

In 1944, Hans Wegner began a series of chairs drawn from portraits of Danish merchants seated in Ming Chairs. Among them, the Wishbone Chair, completed in 1949 and in continuous production by Carl Hansen & Søn since 1950. Hansen recognized in Wishbone something the market lacked: a lighter counterpoint to the period's prevailing heaviness. Steam-bent solid wood, a woven paper cord seat, and joinery refined over decades of Danish craft practice – the chair is built not for a room, but for a lifetime. Made in Denmark.
