GE1935 a beautiful sculptural bench for many purposes has become an icon of modern design. Hans J. Wegner's sofa and armchair were created as a follow-up to his idea for an American competition in 1948. The use of plywood in aircraft during World War II inspired Wegner in 1948 for this series, which became his first furniture with form- stressed plywood shells. The name "Venus" is inspired by Botticelli's painting of the goddess of love Venus, who is blown ashore standing on a seashell. The bench is available with and without upholstery on the seat.
