Mid Century Modern Ant Chair Fritz Hansen Illums Bolighus

Description

The original Ant chair was named for its approximate similarity to the outline of an ant with its head raised. The chair was designed to be light, stable, easy to stack up, and to minimize tangling the user's feet. The original model had three plastic legs and a seat made from form-moulded laminated veneer.
