Description
The classic nature of the chair disappears when faced with a real functional sculpture. The choice of shapes is dictated not only by the craftsman's creativity, but also by an attentive study of ergonomics, resulting in a visually unique and at the same time comfortable furnishing element.
The Kjærholm Collection is the result of an important legacy entrusted to Fritz Hansen by the administrators of Kjærholm two years after renowned designer passed away. The collection contains a selection of models developed from 1951 to 1980, and aims to keep the artist's flame alive, so that his creative genius remains for future generations.
