"The chair is the thing that is closest to people, so it is important that its detailing is in order." -Hans Wegner

Carl Hansen & Søn is proud to present a lounge chair and sofa highlighting Hans J. Wegner's unique mastery of upholstery and furniture craftsmanship. Wegner possessed a rare ability to unite aesthetics, function and comfort - a talent clearly evident in the sculptural furniture set the world-famous Danish architect and designer first introduced in 1952. The CH71 lounge chair and CH72 two-seater sofa, which have not been in production since the late 1970s, now join the Carl Hansen & Søn collection.

Both the CH71 and CH72 are characterized by relatively small dimensions, a slim, comfortable, fully upholstered frame, and round, tapered legs in solid wood. The comfortable furniture set features loose cushions and upholstered armrests that are finished with elegant, rounded, solid wood handles.
