My Home Now Boasts a New Wishbone Chair in Slate!
Carl Hansen & Søn Introduces New Color Variants for the Iconic Wishbone Chair
The Wishbone Chair CH24, a timeless piece of Danish design, continues to be produced by Carl Hansen & Søn. The classic chair, known for its natural wood finishes and paper cord seat, has traditionally been offered in a range of natural wood tones such as oak, beech, or ash in soaped (lightened), oil, or lacquered finishes.
However, the permanent color variants for the Wishbone Chair CH24 are mainly limited to natural wood finishes combined with natural or black paper cord seats. These include the popular Soaped Oak with either Natural or Black Paper Cord variants, which can be found in the latest availability listing.
Carl Hansen & Søn, a company that emphasizes natural materials and subtle finishes, prefers to highlight the organic qualities of wood and craftsmanship rather than bold or bright color variations. This focus on minimalist, natural aesthetics is consistent with Scandinavian design values.
Recently, the CH24 Sift collection was introduced, which includes nine new color variants designed by Ilse Crawford. These new variants are a permanent addition to the collection, not a limited edition. Simon Vendin and Helena Gorne are also associated with the CH24 Sift collection.
The photography and styling for the announcement of these new color variants were done by Niki Brantmark - My Scandinavian Home. No specific location for the home or cabin mentioned in the text is provided.
The new color variants of the Wishbone Chair, part of the CH24 Sift collection, represent a fresh take on this iconic piece of furniture while staying true to its minimalist, natural aesthetic.

Despite the introduction of these new color variants, the traditional product line of the Wishbone CH24 remains focused on natural wood finish variants. There is no evidence of permanently offered, strongly colored variants (e.g., painted in large color ranges) from Carl Hansen & Søn for the Wishbone Chair CH24.
Additionally, there are mentions of Autumn Fika in a little cabin and an "Our Landing Makeover with an IKEA Hack," but no further details are provided. No specific Danish shopping or designer furniture items are mentioned in the text.
The new color variants of the Wishbone Chair, part of the CH24 Sift collection, introduce a fresh take on the traditional Scandinavian design piece while maintaining its minimalist and natural aesthetic. This move towards a broader color palette showcases the integration of interior-design elements within the home-and-garden lifestyle.
Carl Hansen & Søn, steadfast in their preference for natural materials and subtle finishes, continue to expand their offerings while preserving the organic and crafted qualities associated with their products, aligning with the overall lifestyle and interior-design philosophy.
