FRITZ HANSEN

Founded in 1872 in Denmark by the Danish carpenter Fritz Hansen, the brand of Scandinavian furniture Fritz Hansen produce ...s designer furniture, contemporary chairs, iconic armchairs, dining tables and designer lighting that are now international benchmarks. He and his son established the quality standards that still apply at Fritz Hansen today. As in 1872, Fritz Hansen’s work remains guided by the philosophy that a single well-designed piece of furniture can transform a room and enhance the well-being of its owners. From the beginning of the 20th century, the company established itself as a pioneer: in 1915, Fritz Hansen introduced its first bentwood chair and in 1930 became one of the world leaders in plywood. In 1934, a decisive collaboration began with the designer Arne Jacobsen. This gave rise to creations that became legendary, such as the Egg armchair and the Swan armchair, designed for the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. True icons of modern design, these seats combine elegance, comfort, and technical innovation. Arne Jacobsen also designed the Grand Prix chair, awarded at the Milan Triennale, as well as the famous Ant chair, created in 1952 for Novo Nordic. With its minimalist and organic profile, the Ant chair has become a timeless piece in the Fritz Hansen catalogue, able to fit both modern interiors and more classic décor. Even today, it remains an example of Scandinavian functionality and aesthetics. In addition to Arne Jacobsen, the house of Fritz Hansen has collaborated with numerous internationally renowned designers. Among them, Jaime Hayon made a mark with the Ro armchair and the Fri armchair, enveloping pieces designed as havens of comfort, as well as the Ana-log table, which reinterprets conviviality around the table. Kasper Salto, for his part, designed the Nap chair and the Ice chair, combining ergonomics, functionality, and lightness. Read more

The creations of Christian Dell can also be found, notably with elegant and timeless lighting that perfectly complements the Danish house’s collections. True to its spirit, Fritz Hansen always favours noble materials such as leather, wood, and steel, which ensure durability and comfort. The philosophy of Fritz Hansen is built around a subtle balance between tradition and modernity. The collections combine functional and refined design with exceptional craftsmanship. Every designer chair, every contemporary armchair, every elegant table or designer lighting is designed to enrich daily life while becoming a timeless piece. The art of the Danish house lies in its ability to transform utilitarian objects into true functional works of art. Today, Fritz Hansen stands out internationally, with collections present in private homes, public spaces, offices, and prestigious hotels. The company continues to evolve by collaborating with young talents while respecting its heritage. This dialogue between past and present gives rise to timeless designer furniture that continues to inspire the world. The Fritz Hansen collections embody the perfect combination of Scandinavian elegance, ergonomic comfort, and artisanal quality. With its commitment to sustainable design and its pursuit of perfection, Fritz Hansen confirms its place among the world elite of designer furniture and Scandinavian design.
