More about the Hans J. Wegner Swivel Chairs
The CH621 Swivel Chair, designed by Hans J. Wegner in 1948, stands out as one of the few swivel chairs among his more than 500 iconic designs. Balancing precise ergonomics with sculptural elegance, the chair reflects Wegner’s fascination with merging organic materials and modern industrial elements.
Originally produced with a four-legged base, the CH621 has been relaunched by Carl Hansen & Søn with a brushed stainless steel frame and a five-castor configuration for modern stability and flexibility. The height-adjustable gas lift mechanism ensures adaptability, while the seat, backrest, and armrests are crafted in FSC™-certified oak and upholstered in fabric or leather for enduring comfort.
Developed in close collaboration with doctors and physiologists, the CH621 exemplifies Wegner’s pioneering focus on posture and support, making it both timelessly stylish and supremely functional. Today, the chair is an elegant choice for the home office or workspace, embodying the same forward-looking spirit it carried at its debut more than 75 years ago.
