A real milestone of contemporary design, a piece of history capable with its expressive power to carry on the legacy of excellence over time. Made in 1958 by the famous Arne Jacobsen, Egg Chair is a cornerstone of Scandinavian design, as well as a way of furnishing that blends elegance and comfort into one. The structure is in fused glass fiber with polyurethane foam padding. The generous upholstery offers maximum comfort while sitting. Its fortune is due to the distinctly curved design, which escapes any straight geometry to better recreate the sensation of a nest, an egg, in which to gather to experience a maximum sensation of relaxation and protection.

In the style of Fritz Hansen furniture, characteristically nordic, the functional approach is tempered by pure and light lines, which make up immediately recognisable silhouettes that have now become part of the collective immagination. Products such as the Egg Chair armchair and Serie 7’s chairs by Arne Jacobsen are now pillars of the history of design.Read more
Designed by
Arne Jacobsen
Arne Jacobsen (1902-1971) was one of the immortal founding fathers of great post-war Danish design. His sober approach to modernism, typically punctuated, conditioned all the generations of designers that followed and laid the foundations for a style appreciated all over the world. He always considered himself first of all as an architect: his products were in fact created for a specific project, and only later destined for mass production. His most famous project was the creation of the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, of which he took care not only of the architecture, but also of every detail of the interior design, personally designing the furnishings, lamps and even cutlery. It was on this occasion that products such as the Egg armchair were created, perhaps the most famous and iconic seat of all time, still made today by Fritz Hansen, or the AJ lamp, later a great bestseller for the Louis Poulsen company. He also experimented with the design of everyday objects, for brands such as Georg Jensen and Stelton, but also and above all of chairs. The models made with Fritz Hansen revolutionized the design of the modern chair; according to his former collaborator Knud Holscher Jacobsen "he designed the chairs as Matisse painted the pictures - freely and with pleasure".Read more
