ARNE JACOBSEN (Denmark, 1902 - 1971) for FRITZ HANSEN. Set of six Oxford chairs. Fritz Hansen publisher, Denmark, 1976. Metal and leather, swivel. The current edition of this model is marketed at 2000€ per piece. They show signs of use. The upholstery has cracked leather. Measurements: 87 x 46 x 55 cm. Set of six Oxford chairs, a design by Arne Jacobsen. With metal structure and body entirely upholstered in black leather. It is a minimalist design, with a structure reduced to its essence, functional and at the same time elegant due to its harmonious combination of straight lines and soft curves. The original design of the Oxford chair was created by Jacobsen for the professors at St. Catherine's College, Oxford, in 1963, when he was commissioned to build a new wing for their building. An architect and designer, Arne Jacobsen studied for four years at the Copenhagen School of Construction, then entered the Faculty of Architecture at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. His architectural highlights include St. Catherine's College in Oxford, the SAS Hotel in Copenhagen, the headquarters of the Danish National Army in Copenhagen, and the Royal Danish Embassy in London. As a designer, he has created furniture that has become classics, including the "Ant" chair (1951) and the "Swan" and "Egg" chairs designed for the SAS Hotel. He is also known for his 1955 model 3107 chair, also known as "Chair number 7", of which more than five million were sold, starring alongside Christine Keeler in Lewis Morley's iconic portrait. His other contribution to popular culture in the media is his designer cutlery, with spoons for both hands, which were chosen for the film "2001: A Space Odyssey" for their futuristic look. The key to the success of Jacobsen's work lies in its elegant and essential design, and it can now be found in collections such as the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the MoMA in New York, among many others.
