Description
With its expressive silhouette and pronounced armrests, the lounge chair reflects Wanscher's commitment to challenging perceived limits.
Ole Wanscher designed the OW124 in 1951 and presented at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Furniture Exhibition the same year.
The chair is an elegant example of Wanscher's sculptural design - thanks in part to the unique, beak-like armrests that inspired the chair's nickname: the Beak Chair.
