Description
Offered here is an exceptional example of Arne Jacobsen’s iconic Egg Chair with matching Ottoman, one of the most celebrated designs of Danish modernism. Originally designed in 1958 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, the Egg Chair exemplifies Jacobsen’s vision of creating intimate, sculptural seating within public spaces, combining striking form with ergonomic comfort.
