PK15 is a dining chair designed by Poul Kjærholm in 1979 — his final design, and one that encapsulates the sustained pursuit of formal clarity and material precision that defined his entire career. The chair is characterised by clean lines, organic shapes, and carefully considered proportions that achieve an air of refined calm without sacrificing the structural intelligence that underpins all of Kjærholm's furniture work.
As a final statement, the PK15 has a particular significance within the Kjærholm collection — it represents the endpoint of a design investigation that began with the early experiments of the 1950s and continued through some of the most important furniture designs produced in Denmark in the second half of the twentieth century. The restraint and quiet perfection of the PK15 suggest a designer who had arrived at a fully resolved position.
The PK15 works well in residential dining rooms and kitchen settings, and its refined, architectural character makes it an appropriate choice for high-specification hospitality environments and professional settings where a dining chair of genuine design heritage and material quality is required. Fritz Hansen produces the PK15 to the exacting standards the Kjærholm collection demands.
Its formal calm and material refinement make it one of the most quietly authoritative dining chairs in the Fritz Hansen catalogue.
