Item Description

This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a rare piece of design history: the Delta chair, the result of the first collaboration between the renowned German designer Burkhard Vogtherr and the legendary Danish manufacturer Fritz Hansen. This remarkable black lacquered wooden chair is a true collector’s item, as only 100 copies were ever produced in this limited edition. Vogtherr, a designer celebrated for his striking geometric forms and meticulous material understanding, brought his signature aesthetic to this partnership with Fritz Hansen. The Delta chair represents a meeting of minds—Vogtherr’s avant-garde vision channeled through Fritz Hansen’s century-old tradition of Danish craftsmanship. The result is a piece that is both sculptural and functional, a conversation starter that anchors any interior with its quiet, geometric presence. This particular example is marked at the left rear leg, confirming its authenticity as part of the exclusive 100-copy production run. Its provenance from this limited series makes it a significant acquisition for the discerning collector. The Delta chair stands as a testament to the innovative spirit of early 1980s design. Its rarity and its status as the inaugural collaboration between two design powerhouses make it a piece worthy of any serious collection.
