Legs crafted as a single entity for exceptional stability
Renowned as one of Hans J. Wegner of Carl Hansen’s most ground-breaking pieces, the CH07’s dramatic form is sure to catch eyes. Originally designed in 1963, this piece is testimony that Wegner was way ahead of his time. The distinct shell-shaped form of the chair offers a striking presence and a comfortable relaxed posture. When it originally released in 1963, its somewhat controversial aesthetic divided opinion, and sales were poor. Rereleased in 1998, the CH07 immediately became a staple Carl Hansen piece, winning several design awards.

A clean and wet towel should be used to wipe the surface of any product that is exposed to ordinary or corrosive liquid within 10 minutes. A piece of dry cloth should then be applied to absorb the residual moisture. Please try not to apply a detergent with a high concentration of alcohol or a bleaching effect to clean household products. If you have no alternative, you must wipe the detergent off immediately after cleaning to remove corrosive liquid residue.

Great range of products.
Purchased a beautiful rug from here and had a smooth overall buying experience.
Recently purchased a Nordic Style candle holder, which I had admired at a recent stay at a holiday home in Norfolk.Product arrived very quickly. Contact via email from Jonathan. Excellent customer service and a gorgeous product too.
Thank you Jonathan and all at Olson and Baker.
Olson + Baker were wonderful to deal with.
We purchased our item (a beautiful coat hook) but had to delay delivery due to a trip overseas.
We weren't dealing with an automated system, just real people who cared enough to help.
Fantastic customer service throughout the ordering process.
Great products - really pleased with my order.
So glad I came across Olson & Baker for my home accessories that I would not find elsewhere on the High Street.
Really excellent customer service. Can not recommend this company highly enough - the products are high quality and their communication with the customer is first class. Jonathon always responded promptly to any queries and was very helpful.
I would definitely buy from them again.
First class service.

Excellent product but more importantly during these difficult times was the customer service level and great delivery team ....
take note Heal’s as you’ve not got a clue how to service customers
It has been an absolute pleasure buying a lovely piece of furniture from Olsen + Baker. Russell has been a delight to deal with, keeping me informed at every step of the delivery, even down to which colour would fit with my decor - nothing was too much.
I can’t recommend highly enough.
Beautiful and high quality furniture!
Excellent delivery and customer services, even during difficult times like Covid 19.
