The Series 7™ chair is an icon in modern furniture history, designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1955. Its unique shape is timeless and incredibly versatile, displaying character without overpowering the eye. The chair is made from 9 layers of pressure moulded veneer for strength, flexibility and durability despite its slender form. This is the most popular design within Fritz Hansen's chair collection.
The height-adjustable 3117 swivel chair features an elevated five-legged steel base with high-quality aluminum capped castors, originally designed by Jørgen Rasmussen in 1965 for the KEVI chair. The castor's twin-wheeled design improves maneuverability. The castors have soft wheels that glide smoothly on a range of surfaces without damaging the floor.
Arne Jacobsen put his modernist stamp on architecture and design for more than 50 years—not only in Denmark but also internationally. His output was enormous, originating in a philosophy of creating total concepts, where everything was thoroughly designed, with a common thread running through all his work—buildings, furniture and other interior decor. Arne Jacobsen's productions are more relevant than ever—and have enjoyed a strong revival over the last 20 years. He embodies the balancing act of elite creator and household name.
