The Y Chair

Thanks to a simple yet elegant and ergonomic design – CH24 has become one of the leading figures in modern Danish design and has also earned a special place in contemporary design. 

CH24 – A Chair Characterized by Scandinavian Minimalism

CH24 has been known for Scandinavian minimalism and timeless style for many decades. The chair's characteristic form is marked by clean lines and a steam-bent back for high comfort, combined with the armrest in a single piece – a construction that creates a balance between functionality and aesthetics. The name Wishbone Chair comes from the distinctive Y-shaped back, which adds stability to the curved backrest. The Y Chair is an excellent choice for the dining table, where its design and comfort make every meal a delight. 

Skilled Craftsmanship of Exceptional Quality

Each Y Chair is the result of meticulous craftsmanship focusing on detail and quality. The chair's robustness is due to an impressively long manufacturing process, which requires over 100 steps and is largely done by hand. To create the hand-woven seat, over 120 meters of waxed paper cord is used – resulting in aesthetic charm, impressive durability, and comfort. With exceptional quality and durability, the Y Chair is more than a comfortable chair – it is an investment in style and function for generations to come.

The chair comes in a variety of finishes, making it possible to customize the chair to specific needs. The frame is available in various finishes and wood types. A Y Chair is a versatile chair that fits into many settings. Whether used as a dining chair, at the desk, or as an accent chair in the living room – this chair, the Y Chair, adds an elegant and sophisticated character to any room.
