Mid Century Folding Rope Chairs in the Style of Hans Wegner

About the Item

If this pair of popular folding chairs with rope seats and backs looks familiar, it is because it is closely based on Hans Wegner's famous chair design. This stunning pair of mid-century modern rope chairs looks just like Wegner's iconic chairs, and they were made in Yugoslavia during the 1950s. The chairs boast attractive form and their original woven cord remains in beautiful vintage condition. On either side of the chair, handles aid the sitter upon rising, lengthening the life and durability of the chair. One of the most interesting elements of these chairs is that they can be folded up quickly for easy storage and transport, making them a portable choice for mid-century modern design enthusiasts on a budget. This set is sold as a pair of two (2) chairs.

  • Hans Wegner JH-507 Armchair in Teak and Leather
    By Johannes Hansen
    Located in Kalamazoo, MI
    This is a very rare teak armchair designed by Hans Wegner and produced by Johannes Hansen in 1950. The JH-507 in teak and leather was only produced in limited quantities and is a hard piece to find. The chair boasts the original leather on its seat back, and it appears that the upholstery on the seat itself has been recovered in the last few decades. Some age-related wear is visible in the seat back upholstery (see photos for details) while the seat cushion leather is in wonderful condition. In addition to being a collectible item designed by an iconic name in mid-century modern furniture, this Hans Wegner JH...

  • 1960s Mid-Century Modern Hans Wegner Peacock Chair
    By Hans J. Wegner, Johannes Hansen
    Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
    A Mid-Century Modern PP550 ‘Peacock’ chair designed by Hans Wegner in 1947 for Johannes Hansen. Modeled after a traditional American Windsor chair, Hans Wegner’s Peacock chair strips the form to reveal its construction while retaining aesthetic, decorative impact. The chair reveals a modernist approach to designing around the human body and using natural materials, with one exception. The “rush” seat is actually made of paper cord: when the chair was first designed in 1947, shortages caused by World War II prevented Wegner from using jute. Fellow designer Finn Juhl gave the nickname of ‘Peacock,’ seeing the chair’s flattened spindles and magnificent arc resembling the bird’s plumage. Dimensions: 41 3/4 in. H × 27 1/2 in. W × 20 1/2 in. D Seat: 22 1/2 in. x 19 3/4 in. x 12 in. at back Floor to top of seat: 14 in. Top of seat to arm rest: 10 1/8 in. Seat to top head rest: 31 3/4 in. Condition: Excellent, with some minor wear throughout. Shallow chip on top of chair back measuring 1/2 inch long. Chair back’s sixth and seventh spindle from right slightly loose. Lamination along top of chair back slightly worn. Literature: 40 years of Danish furniture design: 1947-1956, ed. Grete Jalk, vol. 3 (Copenhagen: Lindhardt og Ringhof, 1987), pp. 15-17.
