Arne Jacobsen & SAS Royal Hotel

Written by 17 July 2010

This year the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen is celebrating their 50th anniversary. We wanted to mark the occasion by celebrating Arne Jacobsen – the master behind this great project. That's why we decided to create a film about the creation of the hotel and the Egg™ and the Swan™ chair – both were created specifically for this project.

We met in the suite, room 606, with two of his former employees, architect – Poul Ove Jensen and sculptor – Sandor Perjesi. So… Congratulations to SAS Royal Hotel from Republic of Fritz Hansen™. You can read more about Arne Jacobsen at www.arne-jacobsen.com

    I have owned an Arne Jabcobsen chair (the Swan) for a number of year. Original yellow leather upholstery. Have enjoyed it and so have the grand kids. Perhaps too much for it is wobbling and I can not find someone to machine the ‘ring thingy’ that is part of the part which stabilizes the entire deal.

    Any suggestions?Need help stabilizing my AJ ‘Swan” chair I have owned for years. The ring with little beads needs help but I have not found anyone who can either supply the part or have the part machined. Any recommendations?
