Wegner's ge-265 lounge chair for getama, in solid oak with its original kvadrat wool upholstery. Danish mid-century modern at its most sculptural, signed by the getama label.

this ge-265 lounge chair was designed by hans j. Wegner and made by getama in denmark. The solid oak frame is built from rounded, hand-finished members that flow into each other. The sculpted armrests flare into a paddle shape, and the side frames curve down into a gently raked back. Every joint is visible and honest, which is what makes wegner's furniture so recognizable.

the loose seat and back cushions are covered in the original kvadrat wool in a warm, flecked brown that complements the golden oak. Both cushions have concealed zippers. Under the seat, the original getama spring suspension is intact, with its quilted, getama-branded lining. The chair is marked on the underside with the getama label: "getama – design: hans j. Wegner – made in denmark."

with its low, open profile and comfortable seat height, the ge-265 works as a lounge chair in a living room, library or reading corner. It also suits a bedroom or an office seating area. The oak ages well and develops a richer patina over time.
