Item Description
Original early Grand Prix chairs in oak by Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen Denmark. Made in 1992, marked with label underneath the chair. Wonderful original vintage condition. Three available, priced individually.
In 1957, Arne Jacobsen created the Grand Prix or model 4130 chair as a light, modern chair made entirely in laminated wood. The Grand Prix chair, which was not designed for a specific building project, was presented in a series of exhibitions in Denmark and other European countries in 1957. In the Danish press, it was celebrated as a technical sensation, and at the Milan Triennial it was awarded the finest distinction of the exhibition, the ‘Grand Prix’, which has been the name ever since.
