Arne Jacobsen designed a total of six new types of seating for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, among them the Drop chair. The chair was designed specifically for the snack bar at the hotel as well as the guest rooms. The brown color of the leather and the copper-plated steel of the legs matched the hanging lamps illuminating the tables in the bar, while the chairs intended for the guest rooms were covered in wool cloth. Approximately forty chairs were executed in leather.
