When it comes to timeless furniture, few names carry as much weight as Hans J. Wegner — and among his many designs, the CH20 Elbow Chair stands out as a quiet masterpiece. Understated, comfortable, and unmistakably modern, the Elbow Chair is a testament to Wegner’s belief that furniture should serve both body and spirit.
A Design Ahead of Its Time
First conceptualized in 1956, the CH20 was never produced during Wegner’s lifetime. It wasn’t until 2005 that this elegant design was finally brought into production, and it quickly found its place among the world’s most respected dining and occasional chairs.
Its signature feature? A gently curved, low-profile backrest that provides elbow support and natural posture, paired with a seamless seat frame crafted using precise joinery. The absence of armrests gives it a clean, stackable form — making it ideal for tighter urban spaces.
Ideal for Singaporean Dining & Workspaces
In a city like Singapore where space is at a premium, the CH20’s compact profile and ergonomic comfort make it perfect for multipurpose use — whether around a dining table, at a work desk, or as a stylish guest chair.
Its wooden frame and lightly curved seat offer a warm, natural look that complements many popular interior styles, from Scandinavian and Japandi to modern minimalist homes across HDBs, condos, and landed houses alike.
