Questions About Shell On Stand
- What are Shell Chairs?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Shell chairs are iconic mid-century modern chairs designed by Hans J. Wegner and first released in 1963. In terms of both process and aesthetics, the Shell chair was ahead of its time when it was introduced. The expressive seat and back are made out of form-pressed oak or walnut laminates and topped with upholstered cushions for maximum comfort. Its design includes a tapered three-leg structure with two front legs made of one continuous piece and a separate hind leg that supports the backrest. This gives the chair a feeling of lightness without sacrificing stability. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Shell chairs.
- Is the Shell Chair comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Whether the Shell chair is comfortable is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, creator Hans J. Wegner designed the curves of the backrest and the seat to complement the contours of the human body in order to provide ample support when the Shell chair made its debut in 1963. Chairs became Wegner’s specialty, and over the years he designed over 500 of them. More than 100 of his designs, such as the Wishbone chair and the Papa Bear chair, went into production. Shop a selection of Shell chairs and other vintage Hans Wegner seating on 1stDibs.
- Do artillery shells explode?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, if used properly, some artillery shells can explode.

Shop a selection of military memorabilia on 1stDibs.
- What does Balenciaga stand for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Balenciaga doesn't stand for anything. Rather than an acronym, the word Balenciaga is actually the surname of the fashion designer who founded the French luxury fashion house, Cristóbal Balenciaga. In 1917, he established his first haute couture house in the trendy resort town of San Sebastián. He soon followed it with boutiques in Madrid and Barcelona, drawing such clientele as the Spanish royal family. When the Spanish Civil War put a hold on his prospects in Spain, the designer moved to Paris, opening a house on Avenue Georges V in 1937. Shop a collection of Balenciaga apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.

- What does JAR stand for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024In the world of fine jewelry, JAR stands for Joel Arthur Rosenthal, the founder of the acclaimed French brand known for its dazzling, sculptural earrings and other pieces. The New York City-born designer didn’t plan on a career in the jewelry industry. After graduating from Harvard University with a degree in art history and philosophy, he moved to Paris, where he opened a needlepoint shop. His unusual color pairings and imaginative stitchwork drew designers from Hermès and Valentino. Rosenthal was tasked with creating a mount for a gemstone by one of his fashion-industry clients, and he soon moved beyond textile arts and into jewelry. Find JAR earrings, watches and other jewelry on 1stDibs.
- What is a kimono stand?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A kimono stand is the setting for displaying your ornate Japanese textile.

- What does Off-White stand for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 1, 2024As a brand, Off-White stands for the symbolic meaning that late founder Virgil Abloh assigned to the color off-white.

These dichotomies mirror Off-White's approach to design, which combines elements of haute couture and casual streetwear. On 1stDibs, find a range of Off-White apparel and accessories.
- What does KAWS stand for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024KAWS doesn't stand for anything, as the name is not an abbreviation. Rather, it is the artistic alias of Brian Donnelly.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024The history of the Wegner Shell Chair begins in 1963. Hans J. Wegner unveiled the chair at the Furniture Guild Exhibition in Copenhagen, Denmark. Often described as being "wing-like," the chair's radical fluid lines were considered a bit too futuristic at the time. Initially, mixed reviews from critics and the general public, as well as production difficulties, resulted in a very limited early run. Twelve new models were produced for a retrospective exhibition celebrating Wegner's 77th birthday in 1989, and the design began garnering renewed attention (a photograph of the chair was even selected to grace the cover of the exhibition catalog). In 1998, nearly a decade following the piece's reemergence at the retrospective event, Carl Hansen Søn reintroduced the Shell chair 35 years after it was first released, and it has felt relevant ever since. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Hans Wegner Shell chairs.
