Designed by
Hans J. Wegner
This is the only example by Wegner of progression of shape and design, from wooden armchair to bench. The Chinese Bench is a unique and extraordinary accomplishment in this regard.
The Chinese Bench remained a prototype until 1991 when it was finally possible to put it into production thanks to the pioneering experiments at PP Møbler with the pre-compression wood bending technique.
Pre-compressed wood has helped improve several of the Wegner designs in our production and made it possible for us to produce the Chinese Bench after a long deliberation.
The Chinese Bench poses a great challenge to even the most skilled craftsmen. Not merely because of the woodwork, but also because the long paper cord seat. The seat demands an unusual degree of accuracy, in order to appear linear.
