The Ox chair is a true symbol of power, and would be a good choice for any office. The chair is big and looks very comfortable. The headrest of the Ox chair is bigger than a normal one and specially designed to be in tone with the chair 

This chair actually dates back to 1960, designed by Hans J. Wegner and apparently inspired by the work of Picasso - and indeed the humble ox.

How our chair is made:
The Ox chair has a hardwood internal frame lined with a dense foam padding all around. The chair is upholstered in genuine top grain Italian leather and is supported by heavy gauge polished stainless steel frame. The use of stainless steel ensures a strong frame that won't rust or chip over time, unlike chromium plated frames. 

The Ox Chair comes complete with its very own Guardsman® care kit. It’s got everything you need to help you maintain the look and feel of your brand new chair. This bonus gift is a value of £40 and is included FREE with your Ox Chair.

Hans Jørgen Wegner, (April 2, 1914 - January 26, 2007), was one of the most innovative and prolific of all Danish furniture designers that made mid-century Danish design internationally popular. His work belongs to a modernist school that preserves function. He is probably best known for his many chairs of genuine craftsmanship.

Wegner worked for some time for Arne Jacobsen, another famous Danish designer. Wegner was in charge of the furniture in the Aarhus Municipal Hall, which Jacobsen designed. After some years under Jacobsen, Wegner started his own company. Along with fellow architect, he drew furniture for FDB (a Danish chain of grocery stores), spearheaded by Erik Kold - who founded an organization of Danish furniture makers that launched Danish design abroad.

Wegner's chairs were made with the modern, sculptural idea that they could stand on their own, rather than as parts of a furniture set. The "Peacock" chair from 1947, with a slatted back rest fanning out to evoke the bird's plume, was inspired by the traditional "Windsor" chair. His 1949 folding chair was made to be hung on the wall, and his "Shell" chair from the same year experimented with curving the wood in three dimensions to form the seat. The multi-purpose "Valet" chair, designed in 1953, had elements for hanging up or storing each piece of a man's suit. The backrest is carved to be used as a coat hanger, pants can be hung on a rail at the edge of the seat and everything else can be stowed in a storage space underneath the seat. In 1960 he came out with several variations on the "Ox" chair which came with or without horns, and was a fine example of the line Wegner could masterfully walk between elegance and playfulness. "We must take care," he once said, "that everything doesn't get so dreadfully serious. We must play--but we must play seriously." In more recent years he has continued to design chairs and has also worked with lighting, such as the "Pole" lamp created in 1976 with his daughter Marianne. Wegner has stated that, "the chair does not exist. The good chair is a task one is never completely done with."
