Folding Bench BM1871

Description

The BM1871 folding bench, designed by Danish designer Børge Mogensen in 1971, features an inverted double-T base offering both strength and style. Exposed metal fixings add a subtle modern touch. Its rectangular slatted seat offers generous space, and it pairs perfectly with the BM1711 table for alfresco dining, or on its own for moments of relaxation. Another feature of the BM1871 folding bench is its ability to fold. When not in use, it can be quickly stored away to save space. Made from FSC™-certified teak, the BM1871 folding bench is wind and weather resistant, ensuring continued durability.

Teak wood

MAINTENANCE :
Normal cleaning and care - untreated teak
Before using your new teak furniture, you should consider what type of look you prefer for your furniture. If you choose to leave your furniture untreated, the color of the light-brown teak will change to the characteristic silver-gray surface for which untreated teak is known. This transformation process depends on the specific environment in which the furniture is located, and will take place over the following weeks or months.
If, on the other hand, you want the furniture to retain a warm, golden color, you get the best results by treating it with oil before using it for the first time.

Special care - Teak
It's important to clean teak furniture regularly, whether oil-treated or not. Regular cleaning prevents dirt and algae from discoloring the surface. If normal cleaning is not sufficient to remove dirt, we recommend using a special wood cleaning agent. After thorough cleaning, oiled furniture should be re-treated with oil.

To take the best possible care of your teak furniture, we recommend that it be stored in an unheated shelter during the winter season.
Please note that untreated teak tends to discolor if the wood gets wet, for example from rain or glass stains.
We recommend covering teak furniture when not in use to protect it from the elements.
