Flag Halyard Chair designed by Hans Wegner and produced by PP Furniture. With The Flag Halyard Chair, Hans Wegner acknowledges the early modernists such as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, and Marcel Breuer, and proves that he too masters designs in chromium- plated steel pipes. Despite this gesture, the chair is still decidedly Wegner.
With his love of natural materials and his deep understanding of the need for furniture to be functional as well as beautiful, Hans J. Wegner (1914–1907) made mid-century Danish design popular on an international scale.
The American magazine Interiors featured The Chair on the cover and referred to it as “the world’s most beautiful chair”.
The chair rose to stardom when used in the televised presidential debates between Nixon and Kennedy in 1960 and has since been known simply as “The Chair”.
Hans J. Wegners three-legged shell Chair CH 07 produced by Carl Hansen & Søn.was originally introduced in 1963. A few limited series were produced, but the project soon came to a stand still. The 90s brought a growing interest in chairs of more individual designs.
Chair CH 101by Hans J. Wegner and manufactured by Carl Hansen & Son. This collection was designed by Hans J. Wegner in 1970. In 2008, for the first time since their very limited production in the early 1970s select pieces have been re-launched as the Series 100 Collection.
