Carl Hansen & Søn PK 1 Chair | Poul Kjaerholm

PK1 Dining Chair | Carl Hansen & Søn

The PK1 dining chair, designed by Poul Kjærholm in 1955, is an early example of Kjærholm's unique ability
to combine steel with organic materials.
The design has an understated look which requires skilled craftsmanship and an in-depth understanding
of the inherent nature of the materials.

Kjærholm's PK1 chair comprises a steel frame and a flag halyard seat and backrest, which ensures a high degree of comfort
and visual lightness that will look at home in both modern and classic interiors.

The PK1 is available in different steel variants combined with natural or black flag halyard:
stainless steel
chrome plated steel or
black powder coated steel
The replacebale glides are included in felt or a hard version.

It is possible to stack up to five chairs at a time, making the PK1 a versatile and practical dining chair.

Designer POUL KJÆRHOLM

During his relatively short career as a furniture designer, Poul Kjærholm made his mark as one of the finest
representatives of modernism. His work was deeply rooted in the Danish furniture tradition.

The same year he designed the PK1, Poul Kjærholm also created a stylish range of furniture for the Royal Danish Academy
of Fine Arts in Copenhagen comprising two work tables for the school's lecturers and students;
the iconic PK52, or the Professor Desk, and PK52A, or the Student Desk.
These tables were added to Carl Hansen & Søn's collection of classic designer furniture in 2016.
The PK1 Dinner Chair goes well with the PK52 table by Poul Kjaerholm.
