CH45 Rocking Chair

The modern design of the CH45 Rocking Chair carries the elegance of Nordic simplicity referencing the Shaker era, featuring a reclined ladder-back backrest design and envelope woven paper cord seat that echoes through the other designs of the series. Perfectly proportioned, the CH45 Rocking Chair has a dynamic expression for effortless sitting, rocking and rising.
The CH45 Rocking Chair was designed by Danish designer, Hans J. Wegner. Often referred to as the master of the chair, Wegner created almost 500 in his lifetime – many of them considered master-pieces. Almost all of the world’s major design museums, from the Museum of Modern Art in New York and Designmuseum Danmark in Copenhagen to Die Neue Sammlung in Munich, exhibit his works.
Designed in 1965, the CH45 Rocking Chair is part of a larger series designed by Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn, including the CH44 Lounge Chair, the CH46 and CH47 Dining Chairs and the CH53 Stool which are still in production today.
