  1. How long has the CH22 lounge chair been in production?
  2. The CH22 lounge chair was first designed by Hans Wegner in 1950 and has been manufactured by Carl Hansen & Son using the same principles of craftsmanship since 2016. In the intervening years, precision manufacturing techniques have improved so that the front legs of the chair now have the same profile as the back legs, as Wegner originally intended. The chair remains a popular choice for both residential and commercial settings thanks to its timeless design and enduring quality.
  3. What are some of the distinctive features of the CH22 lounge chair?
  4. The Wegner CH22 lounge chair is distinguished by its large, wooden back with visible cover caps. On closer inspection, additional Wegner signature details become apparent, such as the arm support embracing the side stretcher and the seat frame only expanding to full width under the armrest. In the back, the seat's paper cords are led down around the seat frame and through a horizontal groove in the back rail. There are also two refined joints on the front of the seat where the front legs are led up through the hand-assembled corners.
  5. Why was the CH22 lounge chair out of production for several decades?
  6. The CH22 lounge chair was out of production for several decades because Carl Hansen & Søn stopped manufacturing it. The company started producing the chair again in 2016, but the production process has been modernized. Today, the CH22 is still manufactured using the same principles of craftsmanship as when Hans J. Wegner first designed it. However, modernization has improved precision so that the front legs can now have the same profile as the back legs of the chair. This means that they are now made as Wegner had originally drawn them on his technical drawing.
  7. What is the Wegner's CH22 made out of?
  8. The Wegner CH22 is made out of wood, with a paper cord seat. The frame options include: soaped oak, lacquered and oiled oak or walnut, white oiled oak and black oak. The paper cord seat comes in natural or black.
  9. What is the price range for the CH22 lounge chair?
  10. The price for the original authentic Carl Hansen made CH22 Lounge Chair starts from around £2500. The CH22 Lounge Chair is a high-end, original Hans Wegner product. The CH22 Chair is made with quality materials and construction, and its sleek design makes it a popular choice for contemporary homes and businesses.

        Great range of products.

        Purchased a beautiful rug from here and had a smooth overall buying experience.

        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.

        Very good service, great communication and arrived very promptly

        Thank you

        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.

        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.

        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

        Beautiful and high quality furniture!

        Excellent delivery and customer services, even during difficult times like Covid 19.

        Bought some lovely wine glasses as a gift, quick delivery, great customer service and high quality product.

        Would definitely buy from Olson and Baker again.

        The service is superb and the website is so intuitive! 10 out of 10! :D Lee

        Fantastic service, Jonathan was extremely helpful through my purchase.

        Definitely recommend and would use again.

        Thanks! Angela

        First class service.

        The Olson Baker team continue to deliver outstanding advice and product knowledge.

        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.

        Beautiful item arrived earlier than indicated.

        Customer service informed me of this & then followed up after delivery to make sure it arrived safely.

        Highly recommend!

        Olson + Bakers service and products have been outstanding. I can't recommend Jonathan at Olson + Baker enough.

        He is an absolute star and has gone out of his way to provide superb service.

        Lovely website, great communication, fast delivery and they came in at a price other shops couldn't compete with on the chair I was after.

        Easily recommended.

        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.

        Excellent communication and speedy delivery...

        Couldn't have been better and will certainly buy from the company again.
