Egg Chair - 3316/3319

Arne Jacobsen

Developed for the lobby and reception areas at the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, The Egg Chair was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958. The Egg originated in Arne Jacobsen's garage and was originally cast in plaster. Today the synthetic shell is padded with cold foam and covered with fabric or leather. The Egg rests on a star-shaped aluminum base.

GOLDEN EGG

The limited edition collection for the first time includes chocolate brown suede on the back and dark chocolate brown leather on the front. The sophisticated combination of leather and suede is perfectly complimented with a base in solid bronze; hand polished to create a unique finish. The bronze base will darken in appearance, becoming more beautiful over time. Each of the 999 Eggs is individually engraved, under the seat cushion, with a unique number and a brief text about the history and origin of the Egg chair design.

Limited edition footstool is also available.
