Know before you buy
The oil finish provides a natural, matte look that highlights the wood grain and develops a rich patina over time. The white oil finish offers a lighter, Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic, while the lacquer finish provides a smooth, protective sheen that is more resistant to spills and daily wear.
The 14.5-inch seat height is characteristic of a low-profile lounge chair, designed for a relaxed, reclined posture. While it offers excellent support, taller individuals may find it requires more effort to sit down and stand up compared to a standard dining or task chair.
No, the upholstery is professionally fitted to the oak frame and is not designed to be removed by the user. We recommend professional upholstery cleaning services to maintain the fabric or leather's integrity and appearance.
The CH28P is primarily constructed with a solid oak frame. While the armrests are available in solid oak or walnut, the overall structural frame is consistently crafted from oak to ensure structural harmony and durability.
The chair has a footprint of 28.7 inches in width and 26.3 inches in depth. We recommend allowing for at least 6 to 10 inches of clearance around the chair to maintain a balanced look and ensure the rounded armrests are not obstructed.
The CH28P is delivered fully assembled by Carl Hansen. You can begin using the chair immediately upon unboxing.
