Set of 4 Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen Series 7 Chairs in Rosewood Model 3107

A masterclass in Danish modern design, this set of four Model 3107 “Series 7” chairs by Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen represents one of the most iconic and enduring chair designs of the 20th century.

Originally introduced in 1955, the Series 7 chair is celebrated for its sculptural simplicity and groundbreaking use of molded plywood. This early Danish-produced set is particularly desirable, featuring richly figured rosewood veneer—now highly sought after due to both its rarity and the restrictions on harvesting this exotic hardwood.

Each chair showcases the elegant, uninterrupted silhouette that defines the Series 7: a gently curved backrest that flows seamlessly into a waterfall seat, engineered for both visual lightness and exceptional comfort. The organic form is paired with slender tubular steel legs, capped at the feet, creating a striking contrast between warm natural material and industrial precision.

These examples retain their original Fritz Hansen labels and embossed maker’s marks to the underside mounts—an important detail for collectors seeking authenticity and early production pieces. The rosewood grain varies beautifully from chair to chair, offering depth, movement, and a sense of individuality within the set.

At Hobbs Modern, we especially value early rosewood editions like this—not just for their rarity, but for how they embody the height of mid-century innovation. Jacobsen’s work here reflects a perfect balance of form, function, and material mastery, making these chairs as relevant in today’s interiors as they were nearly 70 years ago.

Perfect as a dining set or as sculptural accent seating, this group offers both versatility and pedigree—ideal for collectors, designers, and anyone looking to bring authentic Danish modern into their space.
