Fritz Hansen's great seller Series 7 was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1955 and is a refinement of Jacobsen's classic Ant chair. The Series 7 is based on the same innovative manufacturing process. The seat and backrest are created in one molded piece, consisting of nine layers of veneer layered with two layers of Indian cotton and molded into its true shape. This has given the Series 7 its thin and stylish shell, made from a single piece of wood, the backrest can also be flexed, adding to its elevated level of comfort. The chair is available in a range of woods and colors, with a painted, clear lacquered or fully lacquered finish. A painted finish leaves the natural texture of the wood visible, making each chair unique. With a fully varnished finish, every chair is identical. The Series 7 has eight chrome-plated legs that come in a variety of finishes to choose from. The chair is also stackable for up to twelve chairs in a row. If you would like to order a combination of seat and legs that we do not offer here, please contact our customer service team for assistance.

The Series 7 has become Fritz Hansen's most popular chair in history and although over 60 years have passed since its launch, the design is still fresh thanks to Jacobsen's early design inspiration. Nordiska Galleriet was the first owner of Series 7 in Sweden, and the chair is currently our most popular model. Its popularity speaks volumes about its iconic status, with form, function, and modern design history making it a design icon and a favorite with us. Series 7 is available as a dining chair, office chair, bar stool, armchair and in children's sizes. Choose from a range of natural veneers, solid ash, or full beech in a wide selection of colors. The seat is also available as a front or fully upholstered version.
