This exceptional lounge chair is the pk27 model, designed in 1971 by poul kjaerholm for e. Kold christensen in denmark. The pk27 is one of kjaerholm's rarer works and was only produced for a short period until 1974.
this design combines kjaerholm's clear formal language with a choice of materials that was unusually warm for him. The supporting structure is an elegantly curved seat shell made of multi-layered laminated wood and maple veneer, resting on a base frame also made of molded bentwood and covered in maple veneer. A characteristic feature is the sophisticated suspension of the seat shell via elastic rubber elements, which provide a springy support while visually loosening the structure.
the seat and backrest are fitted with a removable, custom-fit cushion in soft, natural brown chamois leather, which echoes the geometric lines of the shell and further emphasizes them with its striking, cross-stitched buttonwork. The back of the chair maintains a minimalist form, revealing the high-quality maple veneer across its entire surface. The slightly reclined seating position and the generous width of the shell lend the pk27 a high level of comfort while maintaining a sculptural presence – typical of kjaerholm's uncompromising combination of functionality and aesthetic precision.
condition: the condition of the chair is excellent. The wood surfaces are very well-maintained, with only minimal, barely visible signs of wear. The chamois leather has been professionally and meticulously reupholstered using high-quality materials and with great respect for the original craftsmanship. The rubber elements are fully functional and intact. Overall, the piece is in excellent, ready-to-live-in condition with a museum-like appearance.
