Story
Inspired by the PK54
Fritz Hansen says the PK58™ was inspired by Poul Kjærholm's PK54™ table. Against the PK54™ it is 2 cm taller, its top diameter is 10 cm shorter, and the materials differ.
Introduced with the PK8
The sheet notes that the PK58™ was introduced along with the PK8™ chair, in cooperation with Hanne Kjærholm; the design dates from 1963 and production began in 2007.
