Nothing in the world can be said to be certain, except that the earth is round and the Seven will never go out of style - especially now that it's being launched in a limited edition with crocodile-embossed leather.
The 3107 Sjuan dining chair and 3217 Sjuan Croc Limited Edition desk chair have been created in a collaboration between Nordiska Galleriet and Fritz Hansen. This interpretation of the design classic has been crafted with a crocodile-embossed leather front made from the Danish brand's Wild Hide, an aniline leather with a natural surface that reflects the animal's active life with all the blemishes and imperfections intact.
The back of the 3107 Seven is made of black coloured ash with a chromed steel base. The 3217 Seven Croc Limited Edition desk chair follows the same design as the original, but differs in that the base has wheels and is height-adjustable.
The classic Seven was designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1955 and has since become a popular chair worldwide. The iconic shell is made by moulding nine layers of veneer surrounded by two layers of cotton, giving Sjuan its unique and stylish shape.
3107 Sjuan Croc Limited Edition comes in an edition of 100 copies and 3217 Sjuan Croc Limited Edition in an edition of 20 copies. Both are sold exclusively at Nordiska Galleriet.

It's as if a revolution has rolled in and taken over our homes. The same movement has also hit public spaces and not least our Instagram feeds. The revolution comes in soft shapes, with curved contours and it is as if all straight lines and sharp corners have been eliminated in favour of the opposite. The shapes are accompanied by materials that feel as inviting as a soft and warm fur on a chilly winter day or a knitted mohair sweater against bare skin.
