Hidden gem

There was much fanfare when mid-century manufacturers Carl Hansen & Søn reissued Hans J Wegner’s ‘CH23’ five years ago, thus rounding off the set of four chairs he designed for the brand in 1949. Now, its focus has settled on a quieter piece of Danish design history, with the launch of Esben Klint’s ‘EK61 Opal Pendant’. The lantern-like design, conceived in pleated plastic, has been upgraded to mouth-blown opal glass and oak. From £360 (carlhansen.com).
