The Ox Chair by Hans J. Wegner is a striking Danish design statement originally produced by the company Erik Jørgensen, known today as part of Fredericia. The Ox Chair by Fredericia is a bold and sculptural piece that made waves when it was first introduced, challenging the understated norms of Danish design at the time. With its signature ox horn-inspired headrest and voluminous, expressive form, the Fredericia Ox Chair captures Hans J. Wegner’s unique ability to combine artistic expression with Scandinavian functional comfort.
Hans J. Wegner designed the Fredericia Ox Chair as a tribute to strength and personality, using organic shapes to reflect the human body in repose. The Ox Chair by Fredericia showcases Wegner’s ambition to push the boundaries of what a chair could be—more than a functional object, the Fredericia Ox Chair is a sculptural presence that anchors any room it inhabits.
One of Denmark’s most prolific designers, Hans J. Wegner created around 500 chairs in his lifetime, many of which, like the Ox Chair by Fredericia, remain icons of modern design. Known for his deep understanding of wood, materials, and ergonomics, Wegner brought a poetic and sometimes playful edge to everything he made. The Fredericia Ox Chair reflects this spirit, offering a dramatic, inviting seat that feels both powerful and poetic. Designed to stand out and endure, the Ox Chair by Fredericia continues to be a celebrated symbol of modern Danish design.
The Fredericia Ox Chair is available in walnut or oak legs in a variety of leathers and upholstery fabrics. To customize your Spanish Chair, please contact our friendly and knowledgeable team. We will be happy to provide you with leather samples or fabric swatches, a quote, and shipping timeline for your Spanish Chair. info@nordikkacollective.com

What is Scandinavian & Nordic Design?
People from Scandinavia and the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden—and Iceland) obsess over high-quality design, exquisite craftsmanship, and sustainability.
From mid-century modern icons to today's emerging designers, they believe beautiful design improves lives and that intentional consumption can even make us happier.
Why Makes Scandinavian Design Special?
People from Scandinavia and the Nordic countries self-report higher levels of happiness with their lives than than anywhere else on Earth. Despite cloudy, wet summers and long, cold winter nights, many there find a contentment most of us only wish for.
We are not suggesting that incorporating Scandinavian design in your home will make you happier (wink). But we do believe that making intentional choices about the objects that surround us—their beauty, longevity, and functionality—can improve our daily lives.
What "Scandinavian" philosophies & values?
Nørdikka Collective showcases classic pieces by iconic mid-century designers, alongside work by the region's emerging talent. What unites them is a timeless pursuit of design perfection: form follows function; beauty in minimalism; quality is luxury; and longevity is sustainability.
The term "Scandinavian" isn't just about our objects, but rather the philosophies and values the objects represent. Our partners revere environmental stewardship, value human-centered manufacturing, and work to preserve their cultures' design heritage for future generations.
