The Fritz Hansen Egg Chair — designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958 for the Royal Hotel Copenhagen — remains one of the most recognisable lounge chairs in the world. Purchased directly from us, your Egg Chair is 100% authentic Fritz Hansen, complete with its original certificate of authenticity and manufacturer's warranty. The shell is hand-upholstered in Fritz Hansen's fabric or leather of your choice, over a cold-cured foam interior that softens naturally to your body over time. The fibreglass shell is finished in the signature colour-matched underside. A swivel mechanism and adjustable tilt make it as functional as it is beautiful. Why buy from Couch Potato Company? We are an authorised UK Fritz Hansen retailer, established in London since 2003. Every chair ships with full manufacturer support, and our team can advise on fabric and leather swatches before you order. Beware of replicas — see our Real vs Fake guide to know exactly what to look for.

Available in a range of luxurious fabrics and leathers. Discover the enduring appeal of the Fritz Hansen Egg Chair.

The Egg is formed of a foam inner shell which Jacobsen was the first to use. This layer is situated underneath the upholstery, of which there is a variety of fabric and leather. The base is comprised of satin polished aluminium and is a stylish contrast to the upholstery.
