There are a few items that I have on my wishlist as an interior design lover. One of them is the Wishbone Chair that Hans J. Wegner designed for Carl Hansen & Søn in 1949. Previously I wrote an ode to the beautiful chair with the typical y-design in the back.

Hans J. Wegner would become 104 years on april the 2nd and to commemorate him Carl Hansen & Søn is releasing a limited edition of the famous CH24 design. Only on the 2nd and the 3rd of April this year, the chair will be available in ‘ancient oak’. Thanks to a special oil treatment the wood looks like thousand-year-old bog oak. The warm glow of the material gives the design an unique appearance.

Besides the special color of the chair, the limited edition has a special bronze plate with the autograph of Wegner and his birth date. It makes it a true collectors item and something that fans of the brand would love to have.
