Carl Hansen & Søn CH24 Wishbone Chair in Oak

The CH24 Wishbone Chair in oak, also known as the Y Chair, is one of the most iconic designs by Hans J. Wegner. First introduced in 1949, it stands as a timeless piece of Scandinavian modern design and remains a global bestseller.

What makes the oak Wishbone Chair unique?

  • Natural elegance: Crafted in oak, the frame highlights the wood’s warm tones and unique grain, giving each chair its own character.

  • Iconic design: The rounded top rail and Y-shaped backrest, inspired by antique Chinese armchairs, create a graceful and lightweight silhouette.

  • Everyday comfort: Its minimalist form provides natural support, making it ideal for dining, living, and work spaces.

  • Durable craftsmanship: The hand-woven paper cord seat uses over 120 meters of cord and can last up to 50 years before needing to be rewoven.

A lasting Scandinavian classic

The use of paper cord began as a post-war necessity, but Wegner admired its durability so much that it became a permanent feature. Designed exclusively for Carl Hansen & Søn as one of nine commissioned works, the CH24 Wishbone Chair in oak has been in continuous production since 1949 and continues to be one of the world’s most admired dining chairs.
