Fritz Hansen

Founded in Denmark in 1872, Fritz Hansen has collaborated with some of the world's most influential designers to create enduring furniture and lighting. From Arne Jacobsen's Egg, Swan and Series 7 chairs to Poul Kjærholm's PK collection and contemporary designs by Jaime Hayon and Cecilie Manz, each piece reflects the brand's commitment to timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship and functional beauty.

Fritz Hansen is best known for producing Arne Jacobsen's Egg and Swan chairs, originally designed in 1958 for the Radisson SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. The Series 7 chair, also by Jacobsen, is one of the best-selling chairs in history. Alongside these icons, the brand produces Poul Kjærholm's steel-framed PK series and contemporary designer collaborations.

Fritz Hansen furniture is made in Denmark, with the brand's Allerød factory handling production of the steel-framed designs and upholstered chairs. The Danish production base is central to the brand's premium positioning and the continuity of the original design specifications. The full supply chain is documented on each product page.

Fritz Hansen is the licensed manufacturer of the Jacobsen and Kjærholm designs, producing to original specifications with the materials and proportions the designers originally specified. Reproductions are widely available at lower price points but typically differ in proportions, materials and finish. For design-conscious buyers, the Fritz Hansen original carries the design authenticity premium.

Many Fritz Hansen pieces are made to order with lead times of 4 to 8 weeks, allowing choice of leather, fabric or timber finish. Stock pieces in the most popular colours ship faster. The made-to-order model allows the brand to avoid holding inventory across hundreds of fabric combinations, which is part of the sustainability and cost optimisation of the brand.
