ch44 easy chair
Design Hans Wegner, 1951
Hardwood, cord caning, finish options
Made in Denmark by Carl Hansen & Son
The design of Wegner's Easy Chair is quiet but like all his other designs executed with great consequence down to the last detail. The comfort is optimal for such a light chair with wooden back, woven seat and slim armrests. The comfort may, however, be improved by adding the 2 light CH44 cushions which make the chair a little softer to sit in. The back cushion is suspended from the top of the rear legs where a groove is made to hold the 2 loops of the cushion. Cushions feature a European down fill.
One of the advantages of the CH44 Easy Chair is its modest dimensions and its low weight, which makes it almost as easy to move around as a dining chair. It is ideal where lack of space prohibits the use of an ordinary armchair or where you want a more airy atmosphere than the room normally offers.
