The FK, developed by Fabricius and Kastholm, stands for timeless yet modern design. In the 1960s this shell chair pointed the way to a new stylistic idiom and became emblematic of modern design. In 1969 it was honoured as the first recipient of the Federal Award for Good Form.

With its timeless tulip styling it is now experiencing a new wave of adulation - as visitor, task & conference chair or as a single piece.

  • Swivel base
  • Two variants - Bucket & Lounge
  • Three star base
  • Bucket available on optional 5 star base with castors and tilt (note - chair is slightly higher when fitted with this mechanism)

The Modern Icon Black Edition

The modern icons of the Black Edition are created in this same spirit. These timeless designs are marked by the lived values of Walter Knoll: handcrafted excellence, aesthetic connoisseurship, and carefully selected materials of the highest quality. Walter Knoll has chosen seven timeless classics to present in uncompromising black, crafted from matt black, powder-coated steel, and soft, smooth black leather that becomes more beautiful each day.
