Carl Hansen CH88P Dining Chair — Black Powder Coated Steel Base
Manufacturer: Carl Hansen & Søn | Designer: Hans J. Wegner, 1955
An Exploration of Materials
The CH88P Dining Chair is a compelling example of Hans J. Wegner's lifelong exploration of materials. The elegant combination of upholstered seat, solid wood backrest and steel frame demonstrates Wegner's rare ability to make minimalist forms appear soft and inviting — a chair that is as considered in its construction as it is comfortable in use.
Wegner originally developed the CH88P as a prototype with coloured legs for the international Helsingborg Exhibition of 1955 in Sweden. It remained unrealised for decades before Carl Hansen & Søn finally brought it into production in 2014.
Craftsmanship & Finish
The CH88P's clever construction and stackable quality make it highly functional for both residential and contract settings. The seat is available upholstered in leather or fabric, adding versatility and comfort.
- Dimensions — W57 × D44.5 × H76.5cm (seat height 44.5cm)
- Frame — black powder coated steel
- Seat — foam, upholstered in leather or fabric
- Back — solid wood
- Stacking — yes
Also available with a stainless steel base, and as the CH88T with a form-pressed veneer seat.
Part of the Carl Hansen Dining Chairs collection.
