The Egg™ from Fritz Hansen

Developed for the lobby and reception areas at the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958. The Egg™ originated in Arne Jacobsen's garage - cast in plaster. Today the synthetic shell is padded with cold foam and covered with fabric or different types of leather resting on a star-shaped aluminum base. As a special anniversary model, we are introducing a beautiful and unique Egg. This Egg will only be available in a limited number of 999 Eggs. Each Egg will be numbered, a brief text about the Egg™ is printed on the back of the cushion and for those who buy the Egg™ we offer a book about the Egg™ and Arne Jacobsen. 999 books, i.e. one book for each Egg will be sent from Fritz Hansen. Visit a Fritz Hansen dealer to see the unique Egg™ upholstered in a smooth chocolate brown Wild Elegance leather on the front and soft suede on the back. The base is hand-polished browned bronze.
