Description

Originally designed in 1958 for the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, this 1999 authentic production Arne Jacobsen egg chair and corresponding ottoman were manufactured by Fritz Hansen and distributed in the United States by Knoll.
Biomorphic design with soft curves that cradle the body. Sizable seat supported by an aluminum base with both a 360 degree swivel and tilt function for optimal comfort.
The luxe beige cotton / chenille upholstery, which looks misleadingly pink in a few of the images, is original and shows only light wear from age / minor signs of wear (namely, two tiny spots to one of the arms). Upholstery has been cleaned and is ready to go.
Both chair and ottoman retain the Fritz Hansen / Arne Jacobsen 1999 / Knoll Studios / Danish Control labels.
