OW149 Colonial Chair

Starting at $4,790.00

by Carl Hansen

A modern classic with historical roots, the OW149 Colonial Chair by Ole Wanscher is where minimalism meets timeless elegance. Designed in 1959, this iconic lounge chair balances slender proportions with exceptional stability, thanks to its expertly crafted bracing and curved, sculptural armrests—a signature Wanscher touch. Its roundwood timber frame, subtly tapered front and back legs, and refined detailing showcase Danish craftsmanship at its finest. More than just a chair, it’s a statement of enduring design—graceful, versatile, and built to last. Pair it with the OW149F Colonial Footstool for a complete look that never goes out of style.
