$9,500 · Hans J. Wegner “China” Chair in Brazilian Rosewood for Fritz Hansen

An exquisite example of Hans Wegner’s enduring artistry, this 1960s “China Chair” (model FH4283) for Fritz Hansen is crafted from exceptionally figured Brazilian rosewood, showcasing some of the most striking grain patterns we’ve seen on this model. With its sculptural backrest, continuous arm curve, and elegant detailing, the piece is a modern homage to classic Chinese design forms—imbued with Wegner’s Danish sensitivity and mastery of joinery. The Brazilian rosewood timbers selected for this chair exhibit rare contrast and movement, elevating the piece to collector-grade materiality. The red leather seat pad adds a vibrant accent and appears original to the period. This particular example was professionally repaired many years ago and has been lovingly used since. The repair is structurally sound and visually discreet, with no impact on daily function or comfort. As a result, the chair is offered at a significant value compared to market comps, making it an ideal opportunity for collectors seeking beauty, history, and investment potential.
