Chic material mix: PK11 chair by Fritz Hansen
The PK11 chair was designed by Poul Kjærholm in 1957 as a counterpart to the PK51 work table designed in the same year. Together, the two pieces were originally conceived as a matching set.
The complex, beautifully shaped designer furniture is supported by a three-legged frame made of satin-finished, brushed stainless steel. The purposefully placed curves and angles create a harmonious look.
With its special mix of wood, leather and steel as well as its unique look, the designer chair not only embellishes the cosy dining or working area, but also office and lounge environments. Combine the PK11, for example, with the PK51 table - also available in our shop - and create a uniform workplace!
Remarkable chair design: Poul Kjærholm
Poul Kjærholm was a trained carpenter and continued his studies at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts. He had a special interest in various building materials, especially steel, which he regarded with the same artistic refinement as other natural materials.
Poul Kjærholm was employed by Fritz Hansen for about a year, where he created a number of remarkable chair designs. In 1955 he began his collaboration with the manufacturer Ejvind Kold Christensen, which lasted until Kjærholm's death in 1980. In 1982, Fritz Hansen took over the production and distribution of "The Kjærholm Collection", which was developed from 1951 to 1967 - designs that are logical down to the smallest detail and have an aura of exclusivity.
In 2007, Fritz Hansen added two new pieces to the Kjærholm Collection that had never been in production before: the PK8 chair and the PK58 dining table.
