Hans J. Wegner – AP-19 Papa Bear Chair, 1953
Vintage, original 1950s production of one of Danish master Hans Wegner’s most iconic designs. The Papa Bear is rightly considered one of the most important and desirable pieces of furniture of the 20th century; the perfect balance of comfort and aesthetic beauty.
This example was produced by renowned cabinetmakers: A.P. Stolen in Denmark in the late 1950s. A small number of this classic chair were produced with rosewood arm tips by AP Stolen to meet the growing demand in Denmark and the US for rosewood furniture. As a result this version of the Papa Bear has become the most collectible to its highly limited production numbers.
The chair has been reupholstered in off-white boucle fabric from Chase Erwin.
