Product description
Description
Arne Jacobsen was one of the most significant Danish architects and designers of the 20th century. His work is a fundamental part of Modernism and is exhibited in numerous museums worldwide. The young Arne Jacobsen initially trained as a stonemason before studying architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. It was there that Jacobsen—who had been forced to flee to Sweden during World War II due to his Jewish heritage—was appointed professor in 1964. During this period, Jacobsen intensified his work as a designer. He created classics such as The Ant, The Egg, The Swan, Grand Prix, and Series 7—all icons of Modernism. Also dating from this era is the AJ cutlery series, which Stanley Kubrick selected for his 1968 film classic *2001: A Space Odyssey*.
Arne Jacobsen designed the Model 3103 (also known as the "Hammer Chair" or "T-Chair") in 1955. The design is distinguished by its characteristic backrest, which is reminiscent of a hammer. This model is no longer in production.
The seat shell is made of teak. It is in very good condition, showing moderate signs of use.
