Arne Jacobsen’s Fourmi chair is an icon that looks a bit like the shape of a fourmi with its head raised. Arne Jacobsen originally designed the Fourmi chairs for the canteen of Novo Nordic, a Danish pharmaceutical company, in 1952. Today the Ant chair is one of the dominant icons in the Fritz Hansen collection. Although the shapes are minimalist, the Fourmi is an extremely comfortable chair. It is a stackable chair made of oak wood and mounted on a four-legged base in satin-finish stainless steel tube.The shell is made of die-cast veneer — seven layers of inner veneer and two layers of outer veneer at the bow and stern of the shell. The inner veneer is made of beech.
