Johannes Hansen Denmark, 1950 oak, teak, cane 28½ w x 60 d x 38 h in (72 x 152 x 97 cm)
Only a handful of examples of this chaise were made, as the form was never put into wider production.
The craftsmanship matches the high standards now associated with Wegner's designs and the form embodies his practice of clear, rational construction. With slight curvilinearity, the chaise is a purification and simplification of form combined with concerns for functionality and comfort. literature: Dansk Mobelkunst gennen 40 aar 1947-1956 , Jalk, ppg. 141, 143
