Iconic Chairs in Modern Classic Designs

Designed in 1950, it is also commonly known as the Wishbone Chair (owing to its wishbone-shaped backrest), or more industrially as the CH24 Chair. An agile and strong piece, the rounded back rails of the Wishbone Chair allow the human form to change and shift position. This classic design was the last part of a Wegner series inspired by Chinese Ming Dynasty chairs. The iconic Y-shaped back offers comfortable support while providing stability to the steam-bent top.

The Wishbone Chair was designed by none other than Danish designer Hans Wegner. Wegner’s most classic chair is a rare combination of natural design and practicality, with fluid lines and minimalist style. The graceful Y-back, smooth frame and intricate woven seat represent the prominent features of the Organic Functionalism movement of the time. While most replicas take shortcuts on the features that make the original what it is, the Assonhom reproduction is faithfully recreated in honor of Wegner and his principles for great design. The curved hind legs and the semi-circular top rail together with the elegant Y-back endows the chair with a gracious and welcoming air. Our products are reproduced to the style of the original design.

Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman have their origin in Charles and Ray’s investigations into molding plywood and a desire to improve upon a familiar fixture in many living rooms: the lounge chair。 Almost immediately, the design became an icon of American design. Today, these pieces not only live in museums, but continue to offer comfort and style to interiors everywhere. A universally recognized form, the set is available in a variety of veneers, multiple leather options, and two sizes. Whatever selection you make, you can be assured of the quality and authenticity of this design.

It is one of the most famous mid-century modern pieces. Its form and functionality have made it one of the most sought after pieces in modern history. This iconic design can be found in popular films, television shows, businesses and in thousands of residences across the globe. Its original designers, Charles and ray Eames, had intended to give it the look and feel of a well worn first Baseball mitt. It led to the creation of the Assonhom's Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, featuring your choice of multiple leather finishes, high density cushions and imported veneers.
