+ OVERVIEW
The Valet Chair is one of the remarkable fine pieces by Hans Wegner and also the breakthrough in his designing career. The unique outline combines the practicality and the peculiar esthetics concept into one piece which makes the item become one of the most recognizable works by the artist. The chair is shaped into valet form for the usage of hanging the blazer and the seat can be opened as the valet for the trousers. The artist designed the seat into a container which can take in the wallet, keys or other accessories. The Valet Chair is once nicknamed as The Bachelor Chair. The King Frederic IX of Demark had collected this beautiful sculpture-like and highly functional art work.
