CH22 armchair - oak / walnut

The CH22 armchair from Carl Hansen & Søn is a prime example of sophisticated craftsmanship and timeless design. This luxurious lounge chair combines the fine materials of oak and walnut with a sophisticated design that catches the eye at first glance with its striking wooden backrest. The visible cover caps and the artful connection of the armrests with the side strut and the seat frame are evidence of Hans J. Wegner's innovative design approach.

Particularly noteworthy is the combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern precision that has been used since production resumed in 2016. The seat's paper cords are artfully guided around the seat frame and pulled down through a horizontal groove in the backrest, which is not only visually appealing but also ensures a high level of seating comfort. The front legs, which now have the same profile as the back legs, run upwards through the seat frame and are stylishly locked in place with wedges.

The CH22 lounge chair, which was originally created in 1950 in Carl Hansen's family workshop, remains true to its historical origins while benefiting from the advantages of modern production techniques. This allows for a production process that both corresponds to Wegner's original design ideas and meets the highest quality standards. An armchair that not only impresses with its appearance, but also with its functional elegance and durability.

Whether in the living room or in a stylish lounge - the CH22 armchair is not just a piece of furniture, but a design statement that adds an exclusive touch to any room.

Optimal use and care

Wood :

Wood is a living, natural material and should therefore always be cleaned as gently as possible. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth ensures that the furniture always looks good and has a beautiful patina. Never use aggressive cleaning agents to clean furniture.

Solid wood furniture should not be placed near heat sources such as radiators and wood stoves or stored in unheated rooms.
Wood is a natural material and therefore no two pieces are alike. Small knots, visible growth spots and color variations are part of the natural appearance of wood. The parts of a piece of furniture are always assembled according to color and structure so that the piece of furniture is beautiful and complete.
The furniture is beautiful and complete. Color and texture can vary from one piece of furniture to another.

Paper cord

The paper cords used at Carl Hansen & Søn are made from sustainable, FSC-certified materials. We use two different colors of paper cords: natural and black. The natural paper cord is made from unbleached paper while the black cord is dyed.

Normal cleaning and maintenance
Paper cord typically requires little or no maintenance as the durable paper cord is designed to last for years. If you want to clean the seat, you can wipe it with a well-wrung soft cloth and a neutral, colorless soap solution. It is not recommended to do this too often as it may cause unnecessary wear and tear on the paper cord. The paper cord has a thin layer of wax that prevents staining. However, discoloration of the paper cord can occur if strong liquids, e.g. E.g. red wine, fruit juice or strongly colored food can be spilled on the cord.
