The PK22 lounge chair by Poul Kjærholm is a masterpiece of simplicity, precision and refinement. Originally designed in 1955, this chair is today one of the most influential symbols of Scandinavian modernism.
Awarded the Grand Prix at the 1957 Milan Triennale , the PK22 marked Kjærholm’s international breakthrough. His vision – to reduce an object to its bare essence – is fully expressed in this chair: a slender steel frame, floating seat and an uncompromising balance between strength and lightness.
This particular example dates from 1988 and is upholstered in the original dark brown leather , which is in excellent condition . The leather shows a beautiful, natural patina that underlines the rich history and understated luxury of this object.
The frame is finished in brushed steel , which provides a modern look and structural strength without detracting from the airy aesthetic of the design.
A must-have for collectors and interior enthusiasts with an eye for iconic, timeless design.
