It may be bitter cold outside but the Wishbone chair is very hot. An enduring example of ever-popular Danish design, the chair was invented in 1949 by Wegner for the Carl Hansen Company. It was created to be a work of art that also provides exceptional comfort to the human body. Almost every current shelter magazine includes images of the Wishbone chair and I love it's versatility which is suited to many different styles in today's home.

In the two dining areas above, the chairs help to blend a refreshingly modern look with a traditional space. Whether the chairs are stained dark to contrast with a lighter wood table, or unstained to partner a dark-stained table, their appeal is both comfortable and visually exciting. In the following three photos, the rounded backs and woven seats of the chairs give warmth to the neutral color schemes of white and bleached surfaces and furnishings. The chairs in these photos help
to convey feelings of casual elegance as well as sophisticated modernity.

When color is applied to the Wishbone chair, it can make a room look both charming and dramatic.
In the first two photos below, the dining areas are punctuated with the chairs in a variety of happy colors. In the second two photos, a blue-painted table surrounded with black chairs and a neutral-toned table with blue-painted chairs lend a contrast that is bold but harmonious.

The chair can also be used in exterior spaces as in the photo below. Natural woodwork and long-term durability of the chairs make them compatible with an outdoor patio table in a warm climate.
