Designed by Poul Kjærholm in 1956, the Fritz Hansen PK61A Coffee Table is an enduring expression of Danish modernism, where precision, proportion and material integrity take centre stage.
Its generous square surface and minimal geometric frame create a quietly powerful presence, demonstrating how exceptional design can emerge from the simplest of forms.
An enlarged interpretation of Kjærholm’s original PK61, the PK61A is defined by its architectural stainless steel base and beautifully considered tabletop. The satin-brushed finish of the steel introduces a subtle industrial character, while the choice of marble, granite or glass creates a distinctive interplay of texture, tone and light. Each material offers its own interpretation of the design. Natural marble brings depth and individual veining, granite introduces a more grounded, tactile quality, while glass creates a lighter, more transparent aesthetic. Every stone tabletop has its own unique pattern, ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike.
The construction is as thoughtful as the appearance. Four precisely engineered base elements are joined with visible machine screws, celebrating the honesty of the materials rather than concealing the structure. The removable tabletop rests in place through gravity, reflecting Kjærholm’s enduring interest in elegant, intelligent construction.
With its generous 120 cm square proportions and low profile, the PK61A works beautifully in spacious living rooms, contemporary interiors and carefully curated design settings. Its restrained silhouette allows it to complement a wide range of furniture, while its distinctive materials give it the presence of a sculptural centrepiece.
More than a coffee table, the PK61A is a study in balance, craftsmanship and enduring design. Created over six decades ago, it remains a compelling example of Kjærholm’s ability to transform industrial materials into furniture of lasting elegance.
Materials: The PK61A™ comes with glass, marble or granite tabletops. The base is made of satin-brushed stainless steel. Please note every piece of marble or stone is unique and will differ, this adds to the character of the design.

Poul Kjærholm was a trained carpenter and continued his studies at the Danish School of Arts and Crafts. He had a particular interest in different construction materials; especially steel which he considered a natural material with the same artistic fineness as other natural materials. He was employed at Fritz Hansen for about a year, where he designed a number of note-worthy furniture pieces - "The Kjærholm Collection", developed from 1951 to 1967 these designs have an aura of exclusivity.
