HANS J. WEGNER
The Chair
Johannes Hansen for Knoll
Denmark, 1950s


"A chair is to have no backside. It should be beautiful from all sides and angles."

One of the finest vintage examples of Hans Wegner's sculptural masterpiece The Chair. This piece embodies his design philosophy: "a continuous process of purification - and for me of simplification - to cut down to the simplest possible elements of four legs, a seat and combined top rail and arm rest."

This is an uncommon and most desirable combination of red teak, with cane seat, and trademark exposed back joints. All original vintage condition, with Johannes Hansen branded marks and Knoll paper label intact.

Approximately 29 H x 25 W x 21 D. Displays impressively. A icon of the Danish design and craftsmanship, and one of the greatest achievements of this prolific figure of 20th Century Design.

LITERATURE : Danish Chairs, Noritsugu Oda, pg.108, an identical model is illustrated at the top of the page.

Before bidding, please read the full condition report, shipping, and payment terms provided at the end of this listing.

A portion of the proceeds of this sale will be donated to support cancer research and emotional support programs for those living with the disease. This is one of 115 items to be offered this week, all for a great cause. All lisings will end Dec. 8th. To learn more, see our "ABOUT" page.

Shipping:

Previously we had teamed up with the UPS Store for packing and arranging shipping. Many potential bidders have indicated they found the UPS Store's service fees and packing charges to be too expensive, discouraging them from bidding. So this year, we have decided to undertake the packing and shipping of all the items ourselves, in-house.

Your patience is appreciated, as we are just a 2-person team. Packing and organizing worldwide shipping for all 115 items in this sale will take some time, particularly large furniture that requires wood crating and special freight coordination. Wood crates will still be built by a third-party woodcrafter, but we will be packing and handling the crates ourselves.

Pick-up is welcome and appreciated. Clients wishing to arrange their own shipping are also welcome and appreciated.


A) Concerning shipping estimates during the auction:

Shipping estimates provided during the auction are estimates only (i.e. "ballpark" figures). The actual packed weight and dimensions are not known until the item is packed.

For Canada and the US, items will be shipped by either CanadaPost, UPS, or FedEx; depending on the nature of the item. For US FedEx shipments, clients will be asked to set up a free customs broker account with Fed-Ex Trade Networks, to clear the item through customs.

For International clients, we normally ship by CanadaPost. We will ship by UPS or FedEx if requested.

C) Concerning medium to large furniture, or fragile items requiring wood crating:

For Canada and the US, we can arrange for either "door-to-door" or "door-to-depot" depending on the carrier. The freight shippers we use are Fed-Ex Freight and Yellow Transport. US clients will be asked to set up a free customs broker account with Fed-Ex Trade Networks, to clear the item through customs.
