The model 'PP 530' was first presented at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' 400th Anniversary Exhibition in Forum 16–26th September 1954, stand no. 23. A group of PP Møbler employees decided to support the Ukrainian children - PP Møbler's carpenters and upholsterers made two special versions of Hans J. Wegner's 'Tub Chair' in their spare time, and the chair was sold at auction in 2022.
