Description
Absolutely stunning off white, with very muted light sage interwoven in the original wool upholstery. Color is stunning next to the Teak wood. This being such a light color it amazing how exceptional the condition is. A couple of small spots of discoloration photographed. I’m sure they can come out but I haven’t wanted to try as I didn’t want to damage with chemicals. Canvas and springs under the seat are in perfect condition as well. This has been only owned by my aunt and myself. And was in storage for most of the time. 29.5"W x 32.25"D x 30.25"H Hans J Wegner trained as a cabinet-maker before attending the Copenhagen School of Arts and Crafts, where he later lectured from 1946 to 1953. From 1938 to 1942, he worked as a furniture designer in Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller´s architectural practice. In 1943, he set up his own office in Gentofte and collaborated with Borge Mogensen in the design of an apartment shown at the 1946 Cabinetmakers´ Exhibition in Copenhagen. Throughout his long career, he has designed furniture extensively for Johannes Hansen and Fritz Hansen. The Royal Society of Arts, London made him an Honorary Royal Designers for Industry' in 1959.
