ABOUT PRODUCTID 2686
The Series 7 armchair by Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen stands as a hallmark of Danish modernism from the 1970s–1990s. The seat, backrest, and armrests are crafted from molded plywood, elegantly curved into organic lines that provide both ergonomic comfort and a visually light silhouette. The vivid, warm red hue with a subtle semi-gloss finish envelops the entire wooden structure, while the slender, slightly splayed legs in chromed steel offer a cool metallic contrast. Precise connections between the seat, armrests, and legs showcase the craftsmanship at the heart of this design. Rooted in mid-century modern sensibilities, the chair is minimalist and functional, with an emphasis on clarity of form. Its condition is excellent—no visible traces of wear or intervention, with all materials remaining authentic and original. This chair tells the story of its era: Jacobsen’s quest for a universal form is evident in every curve, aiming to create a piece that is both versatile and enduring. The red plywood evokes the boldness of the 1970s, a time when design sought to be both expressive and accessible. The organic shaping of the seat and armrests seems to invite a moment’s pause amidst modern life, suggesting that form and comfort need not be at odds—here, they coexist in quiet harmony. The chair can be paired with interiors inspired by mid-century modern aesthetics, such as an oak dining table or a minimalist desk with a metal base. It would work well alongside a lamp with a simple, geometric shade or a textile rug in muted tones, which would highlight its distinctive color. Suitable for the living room or a work space, it combines functional utility with the subtle decorative value of its materials and form.
