Designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958, the Egg Lounge Chair is an iconic masterpiece of Danish design that showcases both innovation and craftsmanship. Originally created for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, the chair emerged from Jacobsen’s deep consideration of the human experience. Designed to create a sense of enclosure and comfort, it remains a calm sanctuary in modern interiors. Today, the Egg Chair is recognised worldwide as one of the triumphs of Jacobsen’s career and a true Scandinavian design icon.
The shell of the Egg Chair is crafted from durable polyurethane foam reinforced with glass fibre, ensuring both strength and flexibility. The upholstery foam is moulded directly onto the hard shell to create a seamless, sculptural form. Thanks to the adjustable tilt mechanism and swivel base, the chair offers smooth movement for extra comfort and ease of use.
With its gently curved form, the Egg Chair offers both comfort and a sense of privacy wherever it is placed. Upholstered in premium leathers or fabrics, the chair presents an elegant appearance from every perspective. Whether in a public space or at home, this iconic design is a timeless piece that can be passed down through generations.
To maximise comfort, we recommend pairing the chair with the matching footstool.
