PP512 FOLDING CHAIR IN SOAPTREATED OAK, CANE SEAT & BACK
SIZE: W61 x D74 x H75 CM, SH:39 CM
DESIGNER: HANS J. WEGNER 1949 DENMARK
The Folding Chair was presented alongside the Round Chair at the legendary 1949 Cabinetmakers’ Guild’s Autumn Exhibition that marked the breakthrough for Wegner. The basic lines pays homage to the Barcelona Chair by the renowned Bauhaus architect Mies van der Rohe while Wegner gave it a folding mechanism that would add stability to the construction and made it out of pure natural materials.
The wooden handles serve as hand-rests, but they also intersect with the otherwise continuing cane seat causing an aesthetic deviation, which makes the cane work look well balanced rather than overdone.
