Hans Wegner

Papa Bear Chair, 1951

Papa Bear Chair, 1951

The model AP-19 Papa Bear Chair, designed in 1951, is one of Hans Wegner's most iconic designs and arguably the most comfortable armchair produced during this period in all of Denmark. This example was made by A.P. Stolen in Copenhagen, owned and managed by the upholsterer Anker Petersen. It features stunning teak paws with oak legs. The chair has been reupholstered in luxurious cotton-wool blend textured fabric. The wood parts have been refinished in Danish oil.
