The Series 7 Chair debuted in 1955 at the H55 exhibition in Sweden, and the appeal of what remains one of the most copied chairs of the modern era is its shape. The chair is ideally suited to the human body, its seatback has a comfortable give and its waterfall seat edge doesn't press into legs. Arne Jacobsen, who was instilled with a love of materials, shaped the core of Danish design identity when he accommodated three different bends in one piece of plywood, simply by narrowing the chair back. Once made by hand, production is now automated and led by a team who ensure the authentic Series 7 is perfect every time. The latest incarnations are a Barstool and Counter Stool with the same "give" in the backrest. Suitable for contract use. Made in Denmark. Original design and licensed manufacture by Republic of Fritz Hansen.
