Ant Children's Chair

*****SHIPS IN 8-12 WEEKS*****

Design Arne Jacobsen, 1955
Coloured ash veneer, chromed steel
Made by Fritz Hansen

The Ant™ chair’s visual expression is delicate and artful, much like the curves of a musical instrument. Designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1952, the chair is made from nine layers of pressure moulded veneer. Its elegant shape disguises its remarkable strength and comfort. The Ant™ Children’s Chair is a perfectly scaled down version of Jacobsen’s iconic design. The Ant Children’s Chair is the perfect introduction to a lifetime of beautiful, long-lasting design. The chair is stackable with other Arne Jacobsen Children's chairs.

About the designer

It is said that as a child growing up in Copenhagen, Arne Jacobsen painted over the Victorian wallpaper in his bedroom. But young Arne did not cover his walls with typical childish drawings or paint the ornate wallpaper boyish blue. Instead, he decided to paint his room entirely white. His decision may seem commonplace today, but in the early twentieth century white walls were not yet in fashion. From the very beginning, Arne Jacobsen was ahead of his time.
