after Hans Wegner, Vintage Papa Bear Chair
Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Circa 1960, walnut, later grey upholstery with button back and loose cushion, turned tapered legs, unmarked.

40 x 30 x 32 in.

While a close match to the original Wegner design, this chair has screw-mount front legs, the original would have through tenon joinery of the legs into the seat frame. This chair was reproduced shortly after its production in 1951 and even to this day, as it has been declared the most comfortable armchair created.

Good condition; later upholstery; good tight joinery.
