Hans Wegner Sawbuck CH29 dining chairs Carl Hansen & Son Denmark 1952
Item description
Outstanding set of six CH29 dining chairs, also known as the iconic “Sawbuck” chairs, designed by Hans J. Wegner in 1952 and produced by Carl Hansen & Søn. Named after the traditional sawhorse used by Scandinavian carpenters and lumberjacks, the CH29’s distinctive silhouette blends function with timeless Danish elegance.
Expertly crafted from a harmonious mix of solid oak and teak plywood, these early examples highlight Wegner’s dedication to honest materials and superb joinery. The organic curves, angled legs, and ergonomic proportions offer both visual balance and exceptional seating comfort hallmarks of Wegner’s design philosophy.
A true collector’s set in very good original condition, these CH29 chairs embody the craftsmanship and innovation that define mid-century Danish design. Functional, sculptural, and enduring, they are a remarkable addition to any refined dining setting.
They are marked with stamps underneath the seats, an assurance of its authenticity and quality.
