The Carl Hansen & Søn CH24 Wishbone Chair - Soft Colors offers a gentle reinterpretation of Hans J. Wegner's 1949 masterpiece through a carefully curated palette of matte finishes. This special edition maintains the iconic silhouette while introducing a subtle tactile experience that invites both visual and physical appreciation of Wegner's enduring design.
Available in five classic colors—black, gray, white, green, and red—each with an irresistibly soft matte finish, these editions showcase the chair's clean lines and characteristic expression while providing enhanced practicality. The special coating not only creates a visually inviting surface that draws the eye along the chair's graceful contours but also offers improved durability and easier maintenance, ensuring this investment piece retains its pristine appearance for generations.
Crafted from beech wood, which provides a smooth, uniform surface with minimal visible grain beneath the painted finish, each chair maintains the distinctive Y-shaped back support that earned it the 'Wishbone' nickname. This innovative element provides essential structural support to the steam-bent top rail while ensuring exceptional comfort—a testament to Wegner's genius in merging form and function.
Each Soft Colors Wishbone Chair is available with either natural or black paper cord seating, allowing for personalized styling within contemporary interiors. The seat itself showcases extraordinary craftsmanship, with skilled artisans spending approximately one hour weaving 120 meters of paper cord into a comfortable, durable surface that develops character with age.
Perfect as a gentle counterpoint to brighter furniture pieces or as a subtle contrast to natural wood tables, the CH24 Soft Colors edition offers versatility and timeless appeal while honoring the Danish modern heritage that continues to captivate design enthusiasts worldwide.
