The model 4340 dining chairs is an early version of the well known 'Heart' chair by Hans Wegner (Models FH4103 & FH4104). A 3-legged version of this chair can be seen in the Christian Holmsted Olsen book " Wegner - just one good chair".

These stunning dining chairs feature a solid beech frames showing gorgeous, warm patina throughout. The original tan leather upholstered seats further emphasise this patina, with the rich, milk chocolate colour perfectly complimenting the beech frame.

Each chair features the Fritz Hansen makers mark to the base of the seat, confirming the authenticity.

The chairs were developed early in Wegner's career, a period where he would collaborate with Fritz Hansen using a variety of new processes such as the use of laminated plywood.
This design was never officially in production, but would go on to inform the design of the model CH20, beginning production in 2005 by Carl Hansen.

A set fit for a collector of all things midcentury, superbly rare and eye-catching in design.
