A RARE PAIR OF ARNE JACOBSEN FOR FRITZ HANSEN SWIVEL EGG CHAIRS AND MATCHING OTTOMAN
A rare pair of Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen swivel Egg chairs and matching ottoman.
Retaining their original mid century upholstery and resting on aluminum bases. Each piece having original labels on underside.

Condition: The chairs and ottoman were produced in March 1973 and still retain their original upholstery. They were removed from an upstate New York estate whose children shared that their parents were the original owners. Each piece (two chairs and one ottoman) is structurally sound and sturdy, both chairs swivel. The inside padding on all three pieces is crunchy and eroding and needs to be replaced. The fabric is in fair/good condition. As you might suspect given its age, there is color variation. That is, the color of the fabric is more vivid in areas that have been less exposed to natural light, like the backs of each chair and the undersides of each piece. No tears or holes to the fabric are evident. The fabric can be easily removed, new padding added, and then the upholstery be re-installed. Ht: 42.5" Wd: 35" Dpth: 27" Seat: 14"
