This rare collectors example of the FK-87 Grasshopper chaise lounge by Preben Fabricius & Jorgen Kastholm for Alfred Kill international is from the original production years (1960s) and not the recent reproductions by Lange making this a highly-sought-after collectors piece. Don't let the age and wear fool you - this is precisely what you want in an FK-87 Grasshopper chaise. With Lange having reproduced this design, albeit a much cheaper and inferior version of the original design from Alfred Kill International, it has forced collectors to seek original examples of this design with greater age and patina (just like this one). That age and patina provides additional assurance of when the example was made and gives greater contrast to the unfortunate creations that Lange produced. While it is easy to get a Lange production Grasshopper - just a simple search in 1stDibs and you will see the many available - it's the original Alfred Kill examples that hold actual collectors and art / design investors value. The iconic FK87 Grasshopper silhouette of the bent steel frame along with extremely comfortable channel tufted cushions and head bolster pillow with leather straps, and signature canvas sling makes a recipe that is finely finished by its exquisite leather wrapped arms - which possesses gorgeous patina showing its refined age. This FK-87 Grasshopper chaise lounge by Preben Fabricius & Jorgen Kastholm for Alfred Kill international is ideal for collectors, designers, architects - or anyone who has refined taste - this is the connoisseurs chair...
