CH46 Dining Chair

CH46 Dining Chair by Hans Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn.

Designed in 1958, the CH46's unadorned yet elegant design displays subtleties that suggest inspiration from Southern European chairs and the American Shaker movement.

Meticulous attention to the angles and proportions of the seat guarantees that each chair is impeccably tailored for human comfort. The gentle curvature at the top of the legs contributes to a comfortable recline for the backrest, while the angle at the bottom ensures that the chair remains steady and cannot tip backwards.

The chair's seat is crafted using paper cord weaving, and the two backrest bars are meticulously laminated from three distinct thicknesses of wood, which are then expertly shaped into a graceful yet resilient bow-like form.

Towards the front, the armrest mirrors the elegant curvature of the front leg, gently arching upward towards the rear and securely affixed between the two backrest bars. Both the legs and armrests exhibit a subtle, arched surface.
