Crafted by Hans J. Wegner, the CH23 Dining Chair from Carl Hansen offers physical and visual pleasure with curved contours in natural materials. Wegner sought to showcase the inner soul of pieces by creating simple and functional exteriors. Introduced in 1950, This chair starts with an arched set of legs that gives one an elegant posture. The curved backrest offers generous support while displaying the wood’s distinctive grain. For added support, the curved seat rest sports a woven pattern that highlights the hand of the artisan. The resting portions treat one to an airy comfort.

When he founded his company in 1908 in Odense, Denmark, Carl Hansen was determined to prove that high-quality craftsmanship and efficient mass production could work well together. To this day, Carl Hansen & Son furniture--mostly the continually popular Danish Modern designs of the 1930s through the 1960s--is swiftly produced by hand, combining the best materials possible with traditional woodworking techniques and the latest manufacturing technologies.
