A key example of Danish modern design, this iconic piece is celebrated for its ergonomic, sculptural form and has remained influential for over six decades. Arne Jacobsen invented the Egg chair. Designed in 1958 for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, it is a Scandinavian classic that has over the years become a fixture of corporate offices. The Egg chair is notable for its overtly organic appearance, which Jacobsen achieved with craft-based padding and upholstery finishing. This 2008 edition marks the chair’s 50th anniversary, featuring a rare green upholstery option that sets it apart from standard models. Its design reflects the enduring legacy of Arne Jacobsen and Fritz Hansen’s commitment to innovation in modern furniture. *** I'm having a hard time representing the color correctly. When I upload the photos they look more neon green but the last photo, which is a vintage Egg Chair from 1st Dibs most accurately represents the green upholstery color.
