Vintage Design
Set of early production “Grand Prix” dining chairs model “4130” by Arne Jacobsen manufactured at Fritz Hansen in the 1970s. The chairs are made in laminated teakwood and the base from stained beech. All chairs are in great condition and retain original stickers from Fritz Hansen. The “Grand Prix” chair is a chair with graphic edge. It was introduced at the Designers’ Spring Exhibition at the Danish Museum of Art & Design in 1957. Later that year, the chair was displayed at the Triennale in Milan where it received the Grand Prix, the finest distinction of the exhibition. The wooden legs are angled smoothly outwards in this design, mimicking the steel legs of Jacobsen’s other plywood chairs. This is one of the few Arne Jacobsen chair designs with wooden legs.
