Series 7 Chairs at Sol Foods
It’s not all that often that you find an iconic mid-century chair in a public/commercial space in Victoria. Wouldn’t it be grand if though if you did? Walking down Government Street and seeing Bertoia Wire Chairs outside the ice-cream shops… Lounging in an Eames Aluminum Group Chair while you’re waiting for your flight… Sitting on an Arne Jacobsen Series 7 chair while you’re eating lunch…
Sol Fine Foods, Victoria BC
That’s right – that last one … you can do that here in Victoria at Sol Fine Foods Restaurant. In fact, you and 44 other people can eat lunch while sitting on a Series 7 chair at Sol.
Series 7 Chair by Aarne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen
The chairs have developed a beautfiul patina after 15 years of commercial use and look better than ever. While Sol’s owner, Colleen, admits the chairs weren’t inexepensive as an initial investment (starting at $483 on our website, here), if you break down the cost per sit over 15 years they are incredibly cost efficient.
If you’d like to see a superb example of the quality, longevity, and environmental sustainability of Fritz Hansen’s products, I strongly encourage you to visit Sol at 2955 Jutland Rd, suite 101.Â
