PK24 Lounge Chair in Wicker
Made by Fritz Hansen
Designed by Poul Kjaerholm
Poul Kjærholm conceived the PK24 in 1965 as a study in contrast: the warmth of hand-woven wicker set against the cool precision of brushed stainless steel. The result is a chaise that feels neither purely natural nor purely industrial, but suspended between the two with deliberate grace.
The organically curved seat draws from the flowing lines of the Rococo period, a reference that Kjærholm translated into the language of Danish modernism without sentiment. An adjustable headrest in black leather anchors the form, providing both physical comfort and a quiet visual counterpoint to the wicker weave.
- Hand-woven wicker seat with pronounced organic curvature
- Brushed stainless steel frame, finished with Kjærholm's characteristic restraint
- Adjustable black leather headrest
- Produced by Fritz Hansen, which has stewarded Kjærholm's archive since 1982
The PK24 is not a chair that recedes into a room. Its silhouette asserts itself, yet the materiality asks for close attention - the texture of the wicker, the hairline reflections in the steel, the supple weight of the leather. It is a work that rewards proximity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used in the PK24 Lounge Chair?
The PK24 features a hand-woven wicker seat, a brushed stainless steel frame, and an adjustable headrest in black leather. Kjærholm selected these materials for the dialogue between organic texture and industrial precision they create together.
Who designed the PK24 and when was it created?
Danish architect and furniture designer Poul Kjærholm designed the PK24 in 1965. It is considered one of his most resolved explorations of the relationship between natural materials and steel structure.
What is the historical inspiration behind the PK24's curved form?
Kjærholm drew from the flowing, organic lines of the Rococo period when shaping the PK24's seat. He reinterpreted that historical reference through the discipline of Danish modernism, producing a form that feels both classical and rigorously contemporary.
How does Fritz Hansen produce the PK24 today?
Fritz Hansen has produced Kjærholm's designs under license since 1982, following his original specifications for materials and construction. The wicker is hand-woven by skilled craftspeople, preserving the handmade quality Kjærholm considered essential to the chair's character.
Is the PK24 suitable for outdoor use?
The PK24 is designed as an interior piece. The hand-woven wicker and leather headrest are not rated for prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight, and the chair performs best in a controlled interior environment.
