RARE SET of 4 BLACK LACQUERED SHELL GENUINE ARNE JACOBSEN "ANT CHAIR" MODEL 3101 

This iconic design is rare and difficult to find.  These chairs were designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1952 , and these particular chairs were made by Fritz Hansen in 1972  .

Manufacturers mark and date are on the plastic base plates of each of these four chairs. 

They are made of black-lacquered shell chairs, and have chromium-plated steel frames with four legs. They are in good vintage condition but do show wear due to age and use on the shells , with wear along the edges and all chairs have minor dents on the seats .  They could quite easily be touched up so that the wear becomes unnoticeable , but we don't want to do any restoration unless requested by the buyer.
