About this Set of Rare Hans Wegner Round Chair in Oak
The Round Chair is arguably the best and most iconic of Hans Wegners chair designs. The Round Chair was made famous in the U.S. by its appearance in the Nixon-Kennedy debate of 1960, the first televised presidential debate.
Extremely versatile chair, scaled just small enough to serve as a substantial dining chair, yet large enough to stand alone in a living room.
The cushion is original robust vinyl. The wood is BRILLIANT looking. There are minor signs of wear consistent with age. All around, 8.5/9 out of 10 condition. Meticulously well kept.
The Provenance of this Set
These chairs were originally purchased and used by a prestigious Southeastern US bank. This is a very early and rare set of model JH-503 chairs. The last owner lacquered the set black due to preference. Upon procuring the chairs, ABT Modern restored the chairs to their original state. This was an extremely laborious restoration but was entirely worth it due to the quality and rarity of these chairs. Due to the striping process these chairs do not retain the cabinetmaker, Johannes Hansens stamp. One one of the undersides of the plywood seats retains the stamp Germany which was the origin of plywood used for this construction.
