PK52
Designed to inspire with strong, striking lines and exceptional details.
This table encourages endless creation and enjoyment.
Drawing on his cabinetmaking experience, Kjærholm
developed a new table structure that showcased his mastery
of steel and wood – and highlighted his signature ability to
unite traditional craftsmanship and industrial design.
This design laid the groundwork for Kjærholm’s pioneering
role in Danish functionalism – and established his reputation
as one of the world’s leading furniture designers. The
modern, highly versatile PK52 table is ideal for dining,
seating larger groups and serving as an inviting focal point
for social gatherings. The PK52’s unique, reversible tabletop
comes in Oregon pine, oak veneer, or a laminate version with
black and gray sides for easy décor changes. The PK52 also
makes an excellent desk or worktable in a studio or office.

In 1955, Poul Kjærholm developed a table concept for the Royal Danish Academy
of Fine Arts that would change the course of his career.
