Two 'Ox' lounge armchairs, model nos. AP-46 and AP-47, and footstool, model no. AP-49

Designed by Danish master Hans J. Wegner, this striking pair of 'Ox' lounge armchairs (model nos. AP-46 and AP-47) and accompanying footstool (model no. AP-49) exemplify the bold sculptural vision that distinguished Wegner from his Scandinavian modernist contemporaries. The chairs' distinctive horned headrest, evoking the silhouette of an ox, sits atop a generously upholstered shell that balances organic form with structural precision. Together with the coordinating footstool, the ensemble represents a masterwork of mid-century furniture design, seamlessly uniting comfort, craftsmanship, and expressive artistic character.
