CH20 Elbow Chair
Hans J. Wegner designed the CH20 in 1956, and its nickname tells you everything: the backrest, carved from a single piece of wood, wraps around the sitter with the easy confidence of a bent arm. That gesture, at once structural and quietly expressive, is what separates Wegner's work from mere furniture.
The wide upholstered seat softens the chair's spare silhouette without compromising its integrity. The frame is solid and stackable, a practical quality that never announces itself. It simply works.
- Backrest formed from a single continuous piece of steam-bent wood
- Available in a range of Carl Hansen & Søn oak, beech, and walnut finishes
- Upholstered seat in fabric or leather
- Stackable frame suited to both residential and contract settings
Wegner's approach to the chair was guided by the hand, the body, and the grain of the wood. The CH20 remains one of the clearest expressions of that sensibility: disciplined in form, generous in proportion.
