Hans Wegner Papa Bear Chair and Ottoman

The aptly named and oft-reproduced Papa Bear chair and ottoman by Hans Wegner is a modernist’s favorite standard, yet is not usually seen with both its original ottoman and upholstery intact. Bits of design whimsy include convenient handles flanking the ottoman for easy relocation, a matching pouch, and teak accents on the ends of the arms, which seem to reach out and beg for company. This chartreuse set screams ’60s Pop, and the fit is neither too big nor too small, but just right. $14,000 from
