Description
Vintage, restored, Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen Egg Chair with ottoman. The chair has only had one owner up til now. Originally purchased in Los Angeles in the late 1990s. The chair and ottoman have since been updated by the original owner in this sumptuous cherry red boucle fabric. There is a Fritz Hansen, made in Denmark and serial number embossed beneath the chair base. The ottoman has the paper Fritz Hansen label on the base. The chair spins, as do all Egg Chairs.
The iconic Egg Chair by Arne Jacobsen made its debut in 1959. The chair was a key element in Jacobsen’s interior design for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark. At the time, the sculptural chair and the hotel itself were landmarks in the work of Danish design. The Egg Chair remains just as aesthetically fresh today as it did over 60 years ago.
