An exceptionally rare and early example of Poul Kjærholm’s iconic PK61 coffee table, produced by E. Kold Christensen, the original manufacturer of Kjærholm’s furniture prior to production by Fritz Hansen. This first-edition PK61 features its highly desirable original black slate stone top, showcasing a richly textured surface with dramatic natural movement, subtle veining, and an almost sculptural presence. The organic character of the slate contrasts beautifully with Kjærholm’s signature precision-engineered steel frame, creating the harmonious balance between natural materiality and industrial refinement that defines his work. Designed in 1956, the PK61 is widely regarded as one of the purest expressions of Kjærholm’s philosophy: reducing a table to its essential elements while elevating each material through meticulous proportion and craftsmanship. The slim brushed steel frame appears almost weightless beneath the substantial slate top, resulting in a piece that is both minimalist and deeply architectural. The frame retains the original E. Kold Christensen mark, confirming its early production and enhancing its collectability among serious collectors of Danish modern design. A rare opportunity to acquire a museum-worthy first-edition PK61 in an increasingly sought-after configuration.
