Wegner J16 Stool

Wegner’s simple corded seat stool is an example of the Danish tradition of designing modern furniture using sticks and dowels. It can be used as a footstool as well as a standalone seat. Wegner’s design reflects his understanding that a chair is a piece of furniture in close contact with the human body, a fact that places high demands on comfort and ergonomics. If anything, his training in furniture making further nurtured his love of wood and he has a special talent for utilizing the wood grain to create surprising sculptural lines.
