A rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of Danish modernism. This pair of vintage PK22 chairs, designed by Poul Kjærholm and produced by the original manufacturer (e. Kold christensen), exudes timeless elegance and architectural restraint. These are not merely chairs – they are storied sculptures of mid-century design.
Wrapped in original cognac leather, the seats have aged beautifully, acquiring a rich, expressive patina that speaks of decades of use, care, and character. The natural wear, markings, and subtle imperfections are not flaws but rather the signature of authenticity – the quiet evidence of a life well lived. The leather has softened with age, creating a tactile, inviting presence that new reproductions can only aspire to.
Each chair rests on the signature brushed steel frame, balancing industrial minimalism with organic warmth. The iconic cross-stitching remains intact, showcasing Kjærholm’s deep reverence for materials and craftsmanship.
Whether placed in a modernist home, creative studio, or curated collector’s interior, these chairs are both functional and poetic. They carry with them the soul of Scandinavian design and the kind of character only time can bestow.
