A collection manufactured to high quality standards using the finest materials
Poul Kjærholm was known for his use of natural materials such as marble, wood, leather, and canvas, pushing the inherent beauty and superior properties of these materials to their limits through various techniques. The pure, beautiful lines of Kjærholm's furniture blend seamlessly into the world of Fritz Hansen.
Christian Grosen Rasmussen, Design Chief at Fritz Hansen, states: "The newly added PK11, PK51/PK55, PK62, and PK63/PK65 are all distinct furniture designs, and these new products will bring further individuality and refinement to Fritz Hansen's existing collections."
The collection includes the chair "PK11™", which fuses stainless flat bars in its three legs with beautiful wood, the table "PK51™/PK55™" with its exquisite wood grain tabletop, and the coffee table "PK63™/PK63A™" combining a steel frame with smoked glass. All are masterpieces of Poul Kjærholm's design.
Poul Kjærholm expressed his appreciation for simplicity and his love for nature through his unique and outstanding furniture throughout his career. Each piece in this highly refined collection possesses a strong identity while adding a subtle Nordic aesthetic to any space.
