CH29P Chair | Hans Wegner | Carl Hansen & Søn

Hans J. Wegner designed the CH29P Sawbuck Chair in 1952. His inspiration was drawn from the sawbucks and saw horses used by carpenters and woodcutters – he added upholstered comfort to ensure a unique touch.

The chair features clean, simple lines and a unique construction. The seat is significantly wider at the front, and – along with the very curved back –ingeniously enhances comfort in various sitting positions while providing a stylish expression.

The elegant chair was taken out of production in the 1970s and relaunched 20 years later at the suggestion of Wegner’s family, becoming an immediate success thanks to its organic, comfort-driven design and unique aesthetic.
