Product Insights
This chair uses traditional Danish cord weaving (single strand as Wegner's 1949 Wishbone) for even weight suspension and breathability, keeping cool in warm weather. Made from renewable wood pulp and white oak, it is plastic-free and biodegradable. Over 5–10 years, the cord darkens and oak warms to honey. The frame can be sanded and refinished, and the cord can be repaired or re-woven, giving a 30–50 year lifespan. However, maintaining this natural beauty requires annual hardwax oil on the frame and regular vacuuming of the cord, plus gentle spot cleaning without soaking.
