The Fritz Hansen Series 7 Dining Chair in Coloured Ash with Black Legs, designed by Arne Jacobsen, is an icon of Danish modern design.
First introduced in 1955, the Series 7 is celebrated for its distinctive curved silhouette, lightweight construction and timeless versatility.
Combining a sculptural coloured ash seat with sleek black powder-coated steel legs, this original Fritz Hansen dining chair brings together natural wood grain, refined detailing and functional Scandinavian design. Its understated profile works beautifully in contemporary dining rooms, modern kitchens, home offices and professional interiors. Available in a choice of coloured ash finishes, the Series 7 chair makes it easy to introduce colour and character into your space while retaining the clean lines of a design classic.
The Series 7 is one of Arne Jacobsen's most recognised furniture designs. Its elegant, organic shape reflects the Danish architect's approach to combining visual simplicity with practical everyday function. The gently curved seat shell creates the chair's unmistakable profile, while the black steel legs provide a contemporary contrast to the coloured wood. With its balance of sculptural design and everyday practicality, the Series 7 works beautifully around a dining table, in a home office or within a design-led commercial interior.
The seat is constructed from nine layers of pressure-moulded veneer, carefully shaped to achieve the Series 7's characteristic curves and a strong, lightweight shell. The coloured ash finish retains the visibility of the wood grain, adding natural texture and depth to the chosen colour. The black powder-coated steel legs create a more understated, contemporary appearance, complementing darker furniture, black metal accents and modern interior schemes. The combination of coloured ash and black legs makes this designer dining chair a versatile choice for a wide range of dining tables and interior styles.
Designed for both style and functionality, the Fritz Hansen Series 7 chair is stackable and easy to incorporate into different environments. Use it around a dining table, as additional seating when entertaining, or in a home office or meeting room. Its lightweight visual profile makes it particularly well suited to contemporary spaces where considered design and everyday practicality are equally important. Choose a single chair to introduce an iconic design detail, or combine several chairs in complementary colours to create a coordinated dining arrangement.
Materials: The Series 7™ is a stackable pressure moulded veneer chair with four legs in powder-coated steel. The seat is available in a variety of stained ash finishes. Ash has a wide grain and this is fully visible through the colour finish

Designed in 1955, this is an licensed Fritz Hansen original piece.
The legendary Arne Jacobsen trained as an architect in Copenhagen. His most famous buildings include Arhus Town Hall in Denmark, the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen and St Catherine's College in Oxford England. His experiments into plywood resulted in the Ant chair in 1952.
The work on the SAS Royal Hotel resulted in some of his most outstanding designs, including the Egg and Swan chairs, a stainless steel cutlery set now made by silver manufacturer Georg Jensen and a series of lamps, manufactured by &Tradition and Louis Poulsen. A perfectionist and a master of detail, Jacobsen worked right up to his death in 1971. In central London, his Royal Danish Embassy on Sloane Street was completed only in 1977. He was one of Denmark's most influential 20th-century architects & designers.
