Grand Prix Desk Chair 3131fru by Fritz Hansen

The Grand Prix chair is an iconic Arne Jacobsen design with a 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 celebrated chair comes in a range of models and can be customised with an almost endless variety of colours, wood types and upholstery. The height-adjustable 3131 swivel chair features an elevated five-legged steel base with high-quality aluminium capped castors, originally designed by Jorgen Rasmussen in 1965 for the KEVI chair. The castor's twin-wheeled design improves manoeuvrability, and customers have a choice of hard or soft wheels that glide smoothly on a range of surfaces without damaging the floor.
