The Story
Series 7 chair in black lacquered beech with stainless steel legs.
Manufactured by Fritz Hansen, Denmark
A beautiful shell and base finish on this classic chair. This is same Jacobsen design that customers in Salts Diner have been sitting on for almost 3 decades - we can vouch for its comfort as well as its beauty and superb production standards.
The Series 7™ butterfly 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 3107 has slim yet strong steel-tubed legs that complement the shell’s curved profile. Legs extend just beyond the edge of the seat, allowing chairs to be easily arranged in rows or stacked for storage. The base/legs are discreetly mounted to a circular disc beneath the seat further enhancing the clean, minimal aesthetic of Jacobsen’s design.
Meet the designer
It is said that as a child growing up in Copenhagen, Arne Jacobsen painted over the Victorian wallpaper in his bedroom. But young Arne did not cover his walls with typical childish drawings or paint the ornate wallpaper boyish blue. Instead, he decided to paint his room entirely white. His decision may seem commonplace today, but in the early twentieth century white walls were not yet in fashion. From the very beginning, Arne Jacobsen was ahead of his time.
Lacquered moulded plywood shell on tubular stainless steel base.
Height: 82cm
Width: 50cm
Depth: 52cm
Seat Height: 46cm
The chair is available in many different colours and finishes. Please email [email protected], call 01274 531163 or better still come and see us in person in our vast Victorian former factory showroom.
