Hans Wegner CH468 Chair

Designed in 1960, the Hans Wegner CH468 is a sculptural armchair that only Hans J. Wegner could have conceived. Its construction and upholstery provide a variety of comfortable sitting positions – and excellent support for the lower and upper back, neck and shoulders. Wegner designed some of his easy chairs with large, curved backs that invite users into a protective shield. CH468 is a clear example of this, with a rounded silhouette that blends beautifully with distinctive, generous armrests. The chair’s legs in brushed stainless steel create a characteristic counterbalance to the chair’s roomy upholstered body. The seat cushion contains a mixture of down and foam, giving excellent comfort while at the same time maintaining its shape. The interior frame is handmade, entirely in wood, by Carl Hansen & Son’s experienced craftsmen. The rounded back, in form-pressed wood veneer, is one of the largest form-pressed wood veneer pieces in modern furniture, and makes the chair’s construction especially stable.
