The world famous Egg chair, designed by Danish architect Arne Jacobsen in 1958 and manufactured by Fritz Hansen, will celebrate its 50th anniversary this year by releasing 999 limited-edition designs. The limited-edition collection will debut a chocolate-brown suede back and chocolate-brown leather upholstery, and a hand-polished, solid-bronze base. Each chair will be marked with a unique number and brief history of the celebrated design, and be accompanied by a limited-edition 50th anniversary book. The Egg chair was originally designed for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark and can be seen around the world in the National Art Center in Tokyo, high-end hotels, and private homes. The 999 limited-edition designs will be available for purchase in select stores beginning Feb. 1.

    Oh I love how it's so classic but it has an edge that just makes it modern. From an aesthetic viewpoint, it's just beautiful.
