The PK31 series from Fritz Hansen's "Poul Kjaerholm collection" exemplifies the quality and minimalist style of Kjaerholm's designs. This series consists of the 1-seater easy chair as well as the 2-seater and 3-seater sofas.The PK31 chair and sofa series combines elegant luxury with comfort. The collection is suitable for any environment, from lounges and waiting areas to private homes.
Poul Kjærholm had a particular interest in various construction materials; especially steel, which he considered a natural material. He was a trained carpenter who continued studies at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts. He moved on to work at Fritz Hansen, for about a year, where he designed a number of noteworthy chair prototypes. In 1955, Kjærholm started collaborating with manufacturer Ejvind Kold Christensen, which lasted until his death in 1980. In 1982, Fritz Hansen took over the production and sales of "The Kjærholm Collection", developed from 1951 to 1967, designs, which are logical to the minute detail with an aura of exclusivity.
The PK31 series rest on a matt chromium-plated spring steel base. The down-filled cushions are covered in your choice of leathers.
