HANS J. WEGNER (Denmark, 1914 - 2007) for JOHANNES HANSEN. "Peacock chair, model JG-550, first period, 1970s. Solid ash frame and teak armrests. Wicker seat. In perfect condition. With publisher's stamp. Measurements: 106/36 cm. The Peacock chair was originally produced by Johannes Hansen (this being the case of the piece we are now bidding for, dating from the 1970s), but is currently produced by PP Møbler under model number PP550. It was never mass-produced during Wegner's lifetime and only a few were produced by Johannes Hansen. In terms of design, the Peacock chair borrows its morphology from the traditional English Windsor chair. When designer Finn Juhl first saw the chair's characteristic flat-axis backrest, it reminded him of a peacock's tail and he named it the Peacock Chair. Wegner also experimented with an upholstered version of the chair and exhibited it at the 1953 Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition. Hans J. Wegner was a leading figure in furniture design, whose ideas contributed to the international popularity of Danish design in the mid-20th century. His work belongs to the modern school, characterised by a special emphasis on functionality. Throughout his career, this designer was awarded prizes such as the Lunning Prize in 1951, the Grand Prix de Milan at the Milan Triennale of the same year, the Prince Eugene Medal in Sweden and the Danish Exkersberg Medal. In 1959 he was appointed honorary royal designer for industry by the Royal Society of Arts in London. His designs are currently included in collections such as those of the MoMA in New York and Die Neue Samlung in Munich.

DONALD CHADWICK (1936) & WILLIAM STUMP (1936-2006) for HERMANN MILLER. Aeron multi-adjustable office chair, 1992 design. Latest generation with leather upholstered armrests. Made of polished aluminum and recycled plastic. Made from 66% recycled material, 94% of the chair is recyclable. With Herman Miller label. Unused. In original packaging. Packaging dimensions: 107 x 69 x 69 cm. Size. B. The Aeron chair, designed by William Stump and Donald Chadwick, brings together material innovation and ergonomics in a thoroughly thought out and studied manner. It was especially known for changing people's perception of what an office chair could be, and in doing so soon found a place in popular culture. It is, consequently, a piece of furniture that seeks positivity for health, cross-performance, inclusive size and sensitivity to the environment. The result is a comfortable chair without the standard use of foam, fabric or leather. As editor Hermann Miller herself states, "While its iconic form has remained largely unchanged, the Aeron chair has been remastered from the pitchers to meet the needs of today's work. With the help of the original co-designer, Don Chadwick, the chair has been carefully updated based on the latest research around the science of ergonomics and advances in materials, manufacturing and technology." William Stump (William Eugene "Bill" Stumpf, 1936-2006) and Donald Chadwick (also known as Don Chadwick, born 1936) teamed up to create one of Herman Miller's best-known designs. In designing the Aeron chair, Chadwick and Stumpf took on a major challenge, making an office chair that truly supports the human form, and resulted in a chair without a single straight line.
