CH07 Shell Chair
Carl Hansen & Søn
Designed by Hans J Wegner.
The CH07 Shell Chair was created in 1963, but the design was ahead of its time and therefore has patiently waited for the spotlight for a number of decades. Today, it is considered one of Hans J. Wegner’s most iconic and groundbreaking designs.
The design’s floating lightness is achieved through its wing-like seat and curved backrest held by a frame with three arched legs. The chair’s signature seat and backrest are created from upholstered form-pressed veneer, cradling the user in generous comfort.
An architectural masterpiece - the Shell Chair is beautiful from all angles.
Upholstery options are priced in groups - see a list under the Details tab below. Please get in touch for samples or to discuss, we're always happy to help
