A Mid-century Design Icon When Hans J. Wegner developed the CH24 Wishbone Chair , he achieved a structural breakthrough by combining the backrest and armrest into a single, steam-bent piece.

This shape was inspired by the chairs of China’s Ming dynasty, often seen in historic grand portraits of Danish merchants. This chair is the essence of modern Danish design: a perfect balance of aesthetics and functionality. Whether used as a Danish dining chair or a standalone accent piece, its presence is a quiet nod to design prestige.
