In celebration of Fritz Hansen’s 150th year, the Danish brand reflects on Arne Jacobsen’s Egg collection as part of some of its favourite visionary designs. Translating the fabulous curves and proportions of the famous Egg Chair, the footstool provides a balanced form with a well-placed dip for resting feet.
Set upon a star base with a black PVD finish, the piece expertly echoes the defining features of the chair without overwhelming the eye. With exclusive Kvadrat Vanir upholstery, the anniversary edition debuts the new Granite Brown variation designed by Raf Simons, providing a soft woollen texture with a beautiful colouring to the stool.
Arne Jacobsen was one of Denmark’s most influential 20th century architects and designers. Jacobsen’s buildings and products meld modernist ideals with a Nordic love of naturalism.
Arne Jacobsen is synonymous with stunning Danish designer chairs and lighting. His most iconic designs include the Fritz Hansen Series 7 Chair, Egg Chair and the AJ Table Lamp for Louis Poulsen.
