The Hans J. Wegner Ox Chair

The Wegner style Ox Chair is an impressive piece of furniture that makes a powerful statement in any room. The dramatic horns aren't just for show; they are there to support the head and neck in a variety of positions. This, along with the reclining angle of the seat and padded cushioning, make the Ox Chair very comfortable indeed. It is available in a choice of fabrics and colours to suit every taste. The cashmere variant is made from the softest, luxury wool and comes in various colours. The top grain aniline leather version has a natural appearance that improves over time.

The story behind The Hans J. Wegner Ox Chair

Hans J. Wegner was fascinated by Pablo Picasso. He designed the Ox Chair in 1960 in honour of 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 recommenced in 1985 and this time it received the recognition that is so rightly deserved. The Ox Chair has since won many prestigious awards and is exhibited worldwide. Among Hans J. Wegner's iconic chair range you also find the Y Chair, the Teddy Bear Chair and the CH33 Chair.

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