The story behind the hans J. Wegner Ox Chair Stool
Hans J. Wegner was fascinated by Pablo Picasso. He designed the Ox Chair in 1960 in homage to the sculptural quality of his idol's work. Unfortunately, the world wasn't quite ready for such a radical chair and production stopped in 1962. It began again in 1985 and this time received the celebration it so rightly deserved. The Ox Chair has since won many prestigious awards and is exhibited worldwide.
