A pair of very early examples of the Hans J. Wegner Y chair, commonly called the "Wishbone chair" with branded Carl Hansen stamp. Early 1950's examples.

Condition
Considering their age, these chairs are in great condition. Original paper cord caning, one chair missing two or three strands but still usable. The other chair is in tact. Once chair with an early example of damage then a repair- left untouched and remaining sound for at least 12 years.
