HOT ! Kennedy Chair

High-quality reproduction inspired by Hans J. Wegner\'s design.

The eponymous Kennedy Chair gained its name--and its fame--after a televised presidential debate where John F. Kennedy asked that they be seated on these chairs. A classic design by the Danish designer Hans Wegner, this chair embodies the designer\'s philosophy that all design should be reduced to its most basic components, with clean, purified lines.As a natural material, wood is subject to effects of the environment including temperature and humidity levels. Chairs are not made from a single solid block of wood and are assembled using dowels and glue. Unlike a metal chair that is welded or a plastic chair that is made in a single mold, based on use and conditions these dowels and glue can loosen over time and may require regular maintenance to keep them performing. Due to the common nature of this upkeep, regardless of manufacturer, resources are readily available online or through your local upholstery or millwork supplier. This is not considered a defect or a warranty issue.
