PK58™ + PK8™ (Vintage) from Fritz Hansen

Poul Kjaerholm's furniture combines pure minimalism with an industrial dimension that exudes discreet exclusivity and is a vivid example of the use of contrasting materials and shapes.

The combination of round and angular shapes and the pure expression create a monumental impression that makes the PK58™ table the centrepiece of any room. The table has an anodised satin-brushed aluminium frame and a tabletop made of a white polyester blend.

For many years, the PK8™ existed only as a prototype in the home of hanne kjærholm, the wife of poul kjærholm. The PK8™ was put into production in close collaboration with hanne kjærholm and introduced to the public in connection with the 2007 exhibition about poul kjærholm, “the furniture architect”, at louisiana museum of modern art, north of copenhagen. The special form of the chair, with its composition of sinuous curves resembles kjærholm’s cantilevered chair from 1953, but the three legs, which shape compliments the seating element, give the chair an outstanding expression of its own.

This beautiful dining romm set, which is available for sale here, is approximately 25 years old and shows minor signs of wear/scratches on the tabletop and minimal wear on the chair frames (see photos). Otherwise, the furniture is in fantastic, almost unused condition.

Due to its excellent condition, the dining room set is very interesting for collectors and design enthusiasts. But of course, the PK58™ is also a great table with comfortable PK8™ chairs for everyday use in a beautiful living/dining room or spacious kitchen.
