The Wishbone Chair, CH24 or 'Y' Chair was designed by Hans J.Wegner in 1949. Manufactured by Carl Hansen & Son in Denmark the Wishbone Chair is every inch the Danish design classic.
The Wishbone or Y Chair acquired its name due to the 'Y' shaped back and with its measured use of materials is a light, sculptural dining chair which offers good back support and a comfortable sitting position.
This version of the Wishbone Chair is the painted wood option. It comes in three wood types (ash, beech or oak) in various painted colours. These wood types each give different appearances :
***FINISHES***
Ash - The grain has strong visibility; works best with the darker colours
Beech - The colours is uniformly smooth and no grain is visible
Oak - The grain has medium visibility.
In addition the Wishbone Chair also comes with either a black or natural paper cord seat.
The Wishbone Chair is also available in a range of Danish and American hardwoods in various finishes. See Wishbone Chair - Natural Wood Finish
