Designed by Arne Jacobsen. The Grand Prix was introduced by Fritz Hansen at the designers’ Spring Exhibition at the Danish Museum of art & design in Copenhagen, 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. Originally, the Grand Prix chair was introduced with a wooden base. Today, the chair is available both with a wooden and chromed steel base.

Choose from two different veneers: Oak or Walnut with clear lacquer or coloured Ash (visible grain) in three colours: white, nine grey or black; with wooden matching legs. Also available with chromed steel legs, please refer to Grand Prix Chair.
