" I am trying to express the very language of the materials themselves." -Poul Kjæ rholm

The PK22 easy chair from Fritz Hansen' s " Poul Kjaerholm collection" . Simple elegance, a typical Kjæ rholm design - with the combination of steel and leather - in an exclusive and minimalist design. The discrete and elegant PK22 easy chair stands as an icon for Poul Kjæ rholm’ s work.

Much of Poul Kjæ rholm' s furniture was intended for his own home, located north of Copenhagen and designed by his wife, architect Hanne Kjæ rholm. His PK22 Easy Chair ( 1957) was inspired by the light, elegant klismos chair created by the ancient Greeks. With this piece, Kjæ rholm reduced the chair to three elements: legs, seat and connecting clamps. Such simplicity is true to the International Style, and the combination of a steel structure with natural materials was characteristic of his work. Through his disciplined approach, the chair' s cantilevered seat is stabilized by a double cross beam that is precisely positioned so the body rests naturally without a hard front edge or top rail.

Feature: Stainless steel legs and black Italian leather.
Dimension: 620w x 620d x 710h, seat: 350h
