Fritz Hansen PK61 Anniversary

Design: Poul Kjærholm

The PK61™ coffee table is as minimalist as you would expect for a design by Poul Kjærholm. The square, aesthetic design is a powerful manifesto and shows Kjærholm's development from industrial designer to remarkable furniture architect. Designed in 1956, the PK61™ is still a timeless table today.

The designer Poul Kjærholm

The Danish designer Poul Kjaerholm was born in 1929. In contrast to many other Danish designers, he mainly works with metal as a basic material. In combination with other materials, such as leather and marble, he created reduced designs. His constructions are planned down to the smallest detail, which distinguishes Kjaerholm as a designer. In 1982, Fritz Hansen took over the rights of Poul Kjaerholm's collections and has been producing them ever since.
