The Series 7™ began where the Ant™ left off. In 1952, Arne Jacobsen and Fritz Hansen had already rewritten the rules of chair design with a three-legged shell of moulded veneer. The Series 7™ refined that idea: four legs, a subtly fuller shell, and a silhouette so resolved that it has remained in continuous production for over seventy years. It is the best-selling chair in Fritz Hansen’s history, and one of the most recognisable objects in modern design — present without being imposing, characterful without demanding attention.
The shell is constructed from nine layers of pressure-moulded veneer — seven inner layers of beech for strength and flexibility, two outer layers available in a range of natural veneers, coloured ash or lacquered finishes. All models are available with front or full upholstery in textile or leather. The tubular steel base is available in chromed or powder-coated steel.
