On sale (only) April 4, 2022

The limited edition (over time, it is on sale only on April 4th) of the Wishbone chair that Carl Hansen and Søn proposes keeps faith with the original but is unprecedented in the finishes: a combination of certified teak and leather tanned with ecological olive leaf extract.

Natural materials

The warm golden tones of oiled teak meet the authenticity of aniline leather, which, precisely because of its ability to preserve the original naturalness, absorbs the color of the olive leaves in a different way. Each individual Wishbone chair will have in fact a distinctive aesthetic expression, underlining the uniqueness of the pieces.

Reinterpreting an icon

Knud Erik Hansen, CEO of Carl Hansen & amp; Son, explained the choice of using new materials to reinterpret a timeless: "Wegner himself has experimented all his life with variations on the same theme and has worked constantly to refine and develop its projects".

And he continues: "In the 1950s and 1960s, Wegner often worked with teak and it is therefore natural to continue and deepen this work in a contemporary context, where both wood and leather are ecologically certified to reduce the 'environmental impact".
