Poul Kjærholm approached furniture with the mindset of an architect, shaping space through proportion, structure, and material clarity. Trained as a cabinetmaker yet deeply interested in the expressive potential of steel, he developed a language that balanced industrial precision with refined craftsmanship. Today, the Kjærholm Collection produced by Fritz Hansen continues to define a uniquely Danish interpretation of modernism that remains essential in contemporary interiors.
PK24
Poul Kjærholm
The PK24 chaise lounge chair is one of Poul Kjaerholm's most recognizable works. Inspired by the Rococo period and the French chaise longue, Kjærholm used steel to support a curvy, flowing wicker form. He labeled it the ’Hammock Chair’ to stress that it functions by suspending the body between two points. Also available in leather.
PK80

The PK80 daybed distills seating down to its most essential components. A rectangular leather mattress rests on a stainless steel frame connected through discreet rubber elements that allow slight flexibility in use. The clarity of its construction gives the piece a strong architectural presence while maintaining comfort. Since its introduction in 1957, the PK80 has remained a defining reference in modern interior landscapes.
PK15
Poul Kjærholm
The PK15 chair reflects Kjærholm’s respect for traditional woodworking techniques while maintaining his characteristic restraint. Crafted in solid ash with a gently curved backrest and cane seat, the chair introduces warmth into the otherwise steel-dominated collection. When paired with the PK54 table, the design reveals Kjærholm’s sensitivity to scale and rhythm. Also available in black.
 
PK22
Poul Kjærholm
Introduced in 1956, the PK22 lounge chair exemplifies Kjærholm’s early exploration of steel as a primary structural element. A slender satin-brushed stainless steel frame supports a suspended leather seat, allowing the material to shape itself naturally over time. The chair’s low profile and precise geometry create a composed seating experience. Its enduring relevance lies in the balance between technical construction and visual lightness.
PK63
Poul Kjærholm
The PK63 table pairs Kjærholm’s minimalist steel framework with a substantial stone surface of Norwegian Fauske marble. The clean linear base elevates the weight and veining of the marble, allowing the natural material to become the visual focus. Designed as a companion to several seating pieces in the collection, the table reflects Kjærholm’s ongoing interest in the dialogue between industrial structure and organic surface.
