CH33

I'm glad someone at CARL HANSEN & SØN decided to reintroduce the CH33.  Designed by Hans Wegner back in 1957, the CH33 was produced for ten consecutive years before being taken out of production.  I wonder what prompted the original chair's fall from grace when it's shape and overall aesthetic is so synonymous with that of the era?  But its reintroduction is testament to the longevity of Wegner's original design, and provides the perfect fall back position for the vintage seeker who has thus far found the original CH33 to be somewhat of an elusive creature.
