Original Product Description:

An iconic Hans J. Wegner design, the CH25 Armchair is clean and simple in its distinctive shape. Originally constructed in 1950, the chair was considered revolutionary at the time. The woven paper cord used on the backrest and seat, a replacement for seagrass developed during World War II, had never been used in furniture design before. Nevertheless, the look of the material and it's non-stretching and optimal durability make this piece fascinating from all angles. Typically, it takes a skilled craftsman around ten hours and approximately 400 metres of paper cord to complete one seat and backrest by hand. Using a particular technique that resembles weaving, the expert craftsmanship is visible on both sides of the low reclining backrest. Crafted with attention, care and delicacy, it's the perfect chair for rest and relaxation.
