The inspired padded Ox-chair designed in 1960, is covered with Italian leather and as strong and distinctive as a bull; raised off the floor by light yet strong legs in highly polished stainless steel. Among the jobs it does, and one that lies close to Wegner's heart, is to make it possible to sit comfortably in many different ways so that one can change position continuously. Only then can one sit really comfortably. The majority of Wegner's chairs are related to nature being designed of wood. The inspired Ox-chair, with its use of leather and steel, is in contrast to this. The chair does contain a wooden frame, but this is covered by the leather. Instead the Ox-chair follows the conditions of the materials in another way. Wegner is inspired by the leather in the shape of an abstract bull - a powerful yet comfortable chair. Wegner is using nature indirectly to create a new shape.
