• Materials: Solid ash wood with a beautiful soap-treated finish, enhancing the wood’s natural warmth and tactility.
• Seat & Back: Original rope weave in excellent condition; the chair comes with its original cushions upholstered in elegant Vibeke Klint fabric – a subtle, refined textile by one of Denmark’s great textile designers.
• Dimensions:
  
• Height: 107 cm (42.1 in)

Condition:

This example is in exceptional vintage condition – the ash frame retains its warm, lightly patinated finish, the paper cord is tight and strong, and the original cushions are clean and well-kept.

Why we love it:

Combining the poetic transparency of the rope weave with the gentle curves of the solid ash frame, the PP124 is both sculptural and supremely comfortable. This chair is a testament to Wegner’s vision of functional beauty and the unrivaled quality of Danish cabinetmaking.

An extraordinary collector’s piece that will bring timeless Scandinavian elegance to any interior.
