Original Arne Jacobsen Black Leather Egg Chair with Ottoman for Fritz Hansen, Denmark, 1967
A striking example of mid-century modern design, this iconic Egg Chair with matching ottoman was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958 for the lobby of the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen and produced by Fritz Hansen. Upholstered in supple original black leather, both the chair and ottoman exhibit beautiful patina and remain in excellent vintage condition. This chair was manufactured in 1967 and has been a single owner chair since originally purchased.
The chair retains its original swivel base and both are fully labeled, a testament to its authenticity and provenance. The sculptural form of the chair offers both visual drama and ergonomic comfort, making it as functional as it is collectible. The ottoman perfectly complements the organic curves of the chair, inviting full relaxation.
An enduring icon of Danish design, the Egg Chair is a standout piece in any modern interior, from minimalist to eclectic.
