Catalog Note

A number of chairs by Wegner are called sawbuck chairs, or 'bukkestole' in Danish. Stylistically reminiscent of folding chairs, they are often fixed in an open position. The name derives from the shapes and angles of the sawhorses in the Wegner workshop. These designs celebrate simplicity in strong, minimal forms that demand few parts and minimal materials.
