Poul Kjærholm 'PK23' Chair for Fritz Hansen

Poul Kjærholm 'PK23' Chair for Fritz Hansen.

Established in 1872, Fritz Hansen has become synonymous with legendary Danish design. Combining timeless craftsmanship with an emphasis on sustainability, the brand’s re-editions of iconic pieces from such Danish Modern greats as Arne Jacobsen, Hans J. Wegner, and Vico Magistretti pay homage to the originals while thoughtfully incorporating innovation and responsibly sourced materials.

The PK23™ was originally conceptualised by Poul Kjærholm in 1954 but remained in the form of sketches until recently. Characterised by its wide, low-profile form tailored for relaxed conversations, the chair features vertically divided laminated veneer shells for both the seat and backrest, bridged by an elegant connector detail. The PK23 chair represents an evolutionary stage in Kjærholm's design journey, blending elements from his earlier PK4 and PK0 models while foreshadowing the structural and minimalist style that would come to define later works.

The PK23™ chair's laminated veneer shells for the seat and back come in 3 varieties: black-painted ash veneer, walnut veneer or oak veneer. A double bracket connector detail elegantly bridges the backrest divide. The chair's base comes in stainless steel for all shell material types or a black powder-coated steel base for the black-painted ash version only.
