Poul Kjærholm PK20 Chair

Danish designer Poul Kjærholm’s career began humbly, as a cabinetmaker’s apprentice in 1948. Later, he was admitted to the Danish School of Arts and Crafts in Copenhagen. In the mid-1950’s he began working for entrepreneur Ejvind Kold Christiansen where, having tremendous artistic freedom, he produced several furniture ranges. Kjærholm won numerous design awards throughout the tenure of his career.

The PK20 rocking chair is one of the PK series of chairs by Poul Kjærholm. Kjærholm considered steel to be a natural material with the same artistic finesse as wood, and with the design of this chair exploited itsnatural strength and flexibility.
