A Design Icon: CH07 Shell Chair

In the lineup of design masterpieces, we once again present a wonder by Hans Wegner. Certain pieces stand the test of time, becoming timeless icons, like the CH07 Shell Chair, a triumph of form and function that has left its mark on the history of modern furniture.

Designed in 1963 by the legendary Danish architect and designer Hans J. Wegner, the CH07 Shell Chair is a striking representation of Wegner’s commitment to marrying aesthetics with comfort.

Wegner’s inspiration for the CH07 Shell Chair drew from traditional Chinese seating and sculptural elements. The chair’s distinctive shape, characterized by a sculptural, wing-like seat, reflects deep understanding of woodcraft.

In 1963, the CH07 Shell Chair faced mixed reviews, with critics praising its unique design while the public hesitated. Carl Hansen & Søn reintroduced the chair in 1998, and a new generation’s interest quickly garnered broad public admiration, and the popularity of chair has endured through the years.

What sets the CH07 Shell Chair apart is not just its aesthetic but also the craftsmanship and attention to detail that go into its production. The chair is available in a variety of finishes and upholstery options, allowing individuals to customize it to suit their unique tastes and preferences.
