so similar to other versions of the same furniture design when placed side by side when the right measures are taken to adhere to the original specifications.\u00a0 On various pieces there are distinguishing features in the original models that can be the tell tale sign of which is an acceptable similar and inspired version of the original design and which is a cheap knock off:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Down Feather Filled Cushions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The down feather filling is the only way to achieve this relaxed aesthetic in the cushions that is especially popular on furniture from the modern periods.\u00a0\u00a0The PK31 Chair is a perfect example of this and, unlike our\u00a0<a href=\"\/store\/pc\/Kjaerholm-Style-PK31-Lounge-Chair-p2627.htm\"

our pieces.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dimensions of the Furniture:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is amazing how some furniture versions tend to deviate too far from the original dimensions and visually become a totally different piece of furniture.\u00a0\u00a0We have made slight adjustments for comfort in a few of our pieces though always taking into account the original design.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few features to take into consideration, and we are always happy to answer any questions you may have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To the untrained eye, many signature designs can
