Hans Wegner Papa Bear Chair

Designed in 1951 by Hans J.Wegner, the Bear chair was originally manufactured by AP Stolen Denmark. The Papa Bear Chair seems to refer to the animal kingdom with its characteristically playful and organic design. Often called, "the most comfortable chair ever made!" and simply known as "model 19", this classic chair has become an icon of mid-century Danish design. Its Danish name (Bamsestol) translates to "Bear Chair", while in recent years it has bcome affectionately known as the "Papa Bear Chair". Setting the gold standard for general comfort, the Papa Bear Chair is the most popular of the many Wegner designs. A substantial piece of furniture with solid construction, attention to detail, and clean lines, this chair sacrifices nothing in purpose nor at the expense of comfort... a timeless classic.
