PP Møbler PP 505 Cow Horn Chair Designed by Hans J. Wegner

The PP 505 Cow Horn chair by Hans J. Wegner for PP Møbler, designed in 1952, is a tribute to the refinement and craftsmanship of solid wood. This compact chair is an evolution of the celebrated PP 501/PP 503 Round Chair.

The PP 505 Cow Horn stands out for its compact structure and expert craftsmanship in solid wood. The armrests and backrest are crafted from two large pieces of wood, carved and joined in an elegant interlock that becomes a decorative feature through the artful use of contrasting grains and tones. This interlock is deliberately showcased with harmonious contrasts in wood grains and visible tenons, demonstrating Wegner’s ongoing innovation in design.

The selected materials, sourced from centuries-old trees, ensure not only timeless beauty but also exceptional durability. The armrest wood is precision-cut to align the grain, reinforcing the structure, while the exposed tenons highlight the chair’s solidity and unique design. This careful craftsmanship enhances both the chair’s robustness and its transformation into an artistic piece perfect for refined settings.

Ideal for elegant environments such as dining rooms and studies, the PP 505 Cow Horn chair integrates beautifully into both contemporary and classic interiors, adding a touch of prestige and authenticity.
