JK 710 Skater Chair
Jørgen Kastholm, 1968

Danish designer Jørgen Kastholm created furniture where form, function, and impeccable finishing come together with clarity and elegance. His body of work has become an essential part of the Danish design DNA.

Kastholm began his career as a trained blacksmith before studying architecture under Finn Juhl at the School of Interior Design in Copenhagen, graduating in 1958. Alongside cabinetmaker Preben Fabricius, he designed for the German manufacturer Kill International until 1967. Shortly thereafter, in 1968, Kastholm introduced the JK 710 Skater Chair — a sculptural and dynamic seat that captures the spirit of the era.

Fabricius & Kastholm

The two Danish designers, Preben Juhl Fabricius (1931–1984) and Jørgen Kastholm (1931–2007), first met at the School of Interior Design, where they both studied during the 1950s.
It was only after each had gained professional experience abroad that they reunited in 1960, discovering a shared design philosophy centered on Perfection, Aesthetics, and Minimization.

In 1961, they decided to join forces and founded their own architectural studio. Fabricius, trained as a cabinetmaker, combined his craftsmanship with Kastholm’s background as a blacksmith—making steel the natural and defining material in their work.

Although both designers created remarkable pieces individually, their greatest achievements came from their collaboration. Over eight years of partnership, they developed an extensive range of high-quality designs characterized by minimalism and functionality, often using steel, glass, and leather.

Since 2006, Lange Production has held the exclusive rights to manufacture a selection of Fabricius & Kastholm’s designs. The furniture continues to be produced at the original factory, using the same tools and methods as in the 1960s. This production is carried out in close collaboration with Jørgen Kastholm, ensuring the authenticity and exceptional quality of these timeless classics.
