Arne Jacobsen designed the Swan™ as well as the Egg™ for the lobby and lounge areas at the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen.
In 1958 the Swan was a technologically innovative chair: No straight lines - only curves.
The shell of the Fritz Hansen Swan armchair is polyurethane foam with glass fibre reinforcement. The seat carrier consists of a spindle of diameter 28 mm automate steel and an assembly plate of 5 mm steel sheet. The individual parts are welded and surface treated with matt zinc. The base consists of a satin chromed, swivel centre part of welded steel tubing (diameter 38x2 mm) and a 4-star base in injection moulded aluminium. The leg ferrules are in blackgrey synthetic material.
