About this piece
Few chairs are as instantly recognizable as the Egg. Arne Jacobsen designed it in 1958 for the lobby and reception of the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. He shaped the first prototype by hand in clay in his garage, and the result is a sculptural shell that wraps around the sitter. Its high back and curved “wings” create a private, cocooning space even in an open room. Fritz Hansen has produced it ever since. The upholstered shell sits on a swivel base in polished aluminum, so the chair turns smoothly and looks good from every angle. More than sixty years on, the Egg is still a defining piece of Danish mid-century modern design: a statement piece that is also deeply comfortable, and just as at home in a living room or study as in the hotel lobby it was made for.
- DimensionsH42"× W34" x D31" | Seat: 14.5"
- Maintenance Oil-finished wood should be re-oiled every 6–12 months using a food-safe wood oil. Avoid prolonged sun exposure — UV light fades natural stains and dries out the wood. Wipe spills immediately and never leave wet items on the surface.
- Cleaning Use a soft cloth lightly dampened with water or mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or bleach-based products, which damage the finish and void the warranty.
Poor or improper maintenance — including failure to re-oil, use of harsh chemicals, or prolonged moisture exposure — disqualifies the item from warranty coverage and return eligibility. Please follow the above guidelines to preserve your piece.
