A visionary design that looks as if it had just landed yesterday, the Fritz Hansen Drop Chair by Arne Jacobsen gives life a forgotten masterpiece. Originally designed in 1958, the Drop chair featured as part of the décor for Jacobsen’s iconic SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. Having produced a limited number for use within the hotel, the design laid dormant for over 50 years until Fritz Hansen re-launched the piece for a new generation.
Arne Jacobsen’s own favourite piece.
Re-launched by Fritz Hansen in 2014.
Select from chrome, powder-coated legs.

An innovative use of plastic moulding, this tear-shaped chair is formed from a pod-like shell that preceded popular space age design of the 1960s. <p>This futuristic feel is accentuated further by thin chromed steel tubular legs that dart out at an angle to mirror the lines of its gently spiked backrest.<p>Novel in its invention, the Drop Chair is by no means a period piece. <p>The sleek silhouette has an organic quality that sits effortlessly in the most modern of interiors with an inviting seat and tapering backrest that allows for freedom of movement while fitting to the contours of the body.<p>From serene pastels to bold primaries, the selection of contemporary colours makes this highly original design the model chair for up-to-date interiors, especially when paired with an industrial inspired desk or grouped around a mid-century dining table. 00https://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/f/h/fh_drop_3110_plastic_table_series_a826_brown_ottawa_rgb_high.jpghttps://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/d/r/drop-chair-chrome-nine-grey-2.jpghttps://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/1/0/1065125_2.jpghttps://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/d/r/drop-chair-chrome-if-in-doubt-blue-2.jpghttps://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/1/0/1055516_2_1_1_.jpghttps://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/1/0/1055514_2_1_.jpgbrand:Fritz Hansendesigner:Arne Jacobsenmaterial_type:Plasticrange:Drop139506Drop Chair Nine Grey281281https://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/d/r/drop-chair-chrome-nine-grey-1_1.jpgInStockNine Grey79001Drop Side Chair Black Chromed Legs281281https://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/_/1/_1_0_1055514_2_1.jpgInStockBlack79021Drop Side Chair White Chromed Legs281281https://www.heals.com/media/catalog/product/_/1/_1_0_1055516_2_1.jpgInStockWhiteFritz HansenArne JacobsenPlasticDropPlasticNoDark WoodNoNoNoPlasticArne JacobsenSpecialist
