Red Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair With Ottoman by Fritz Hansen
In 1958, Arne Jacobsen designed the Egg for the lobby and reception areas of the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. This organically shaped chair has since become synonymous with Danish furniture design throughout the world. Because of the unique shape, the Egg guarantees a bit of privacy in otherwise public spaces, and the Egg - with or without ottoman - is ideal for lounge and waiting areas as well as the home.
The Egg originated in Arne Jacobsen's garage - cast in plaster. Today the synthetic shell is padded with cold foam and covered with fabric or different types of leather resting on a star-shaped aluminium base.
Arne Jacobsen was both an architect and designer. His cooperation with Fritz Hansen dates back to 1934. His furniture and other design work have become a national and international heritage.
The shell can be adjusted to the weight of the individual user. The chair swivels on a 4-star base in molded aluminium.
