Fritz Hansen Butterfly chair

The Fritz Hansen Butterfly chair is an iconic design by Arne Jacobsen from 1955. Its seat is made of molded plywood—a technique he had previously employed for the Ant Chair. The Series 7 Butterfly chair is considered the crowning achievement of Jacobsen’s work with molded plywood, owing to its perfect form. He drew inspiration from Charles and Ray Eames, who were the first to successfully create furniture using plywood. Product name: Fritz Hansen Butterfly chair. Designer: Arne Jacobsen. Type: Series 7.
