BM4570 Dining Chair
Made by Carl Hansen & Søn
Designed by Børge Mogensen
Børge Mogensen designed with a conviction that good furniture should serve life without apology. The BM4570 Dining Chair carries that conviction outdoors, built from FSC-certified teak left untreated to weather honestly, its grain and tone shifting with the seasons into a character that only time can produce.
The seat is fitted with Heritage Papyrus fabric, a material chosen for its resistance to the elements without sacrificing the warmth expected of a considered interior. The frame folds flat, a gesture toward the Scandinavian functionalist tradition where practicality and proportion are never in conflict.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Heritage Papyrus fabric and is it suitable for outdoor use?
Heritage Papyrus is a weather-resistant textile developed for outdoor applications. It is designed to withstand exposure to moisture and UV light while retaining a refined, fabric-like appearance distinct from typical synthetic outdoor materials.
Will the untreated teak change color over time?
Yes. Untreated teak gradually transitions from its warm golden-brown tone to a silvery grey patina as it weathers. Many designers and owners prefer this natural evolution, as it gives the piece an honest, site-specific character over time.
Is the BM4570 suitable for year-round outdoor use?
Teak is one of the most durable hardwoods available for outdoor use, naturally high in oils that resist moisture and decay. The Heritage Papyrus seat fabric is equally rated for exterior conditions, making the chair well-suited to most climates with appropriate seasonal care.
Who was Børge Mogensen and what defines his design approach?
Børge Mogensen (1914-1972) was a Danish furniture designer whose work grew from the functionalist principles of Kaare Klint and a deep belief that furniture should serve everyday life with clarity and durability. His pieces are characterized by structural honesty, restrained proportion, and a prioritization of craft over ornament.
How does the BM4570 fold and how compact is it when stored?
The BM4570 features a foldable frame that collapses flat, reducing its footprint significantly for stacking or storage. This mechanism reflects Mogensen's functional sensibility, where the chair adapts to the demands of flexible outdoor dining without compromising its structural integrity.
