BM5568 Deck Chair with Cushion
Made by Carl Hansen & Søn
Designed by Børge Mogensen
Børge Mogensen designed the BM5568 with the conviction that outdoor furniture should ask nothing of its owner. The folding teak frame demands no ceremony, no compromise on comfort, and no sacrifice of form. It simply opens, receives, and holds.
Crafted from untreated FSC-certified teak, the chair weathers with a quiet dignity, its grain shifting toward silver as the seasons pass. The foldable construction reflects Mogensen's characteristically direct approach: every decision in service of use, nothing added without reason.
The included cushion is upholstered in Sunbrella fabric, a material chosen for its resistance to sun, moisture, and fading without the stiffness that often compromises outdoor textiles. The result is a chair that settles into a terrace, a garden, or a rooftop with the same ease it would a considered interior.

Frequently Asked Questions
What wood is used in the BM5568 Deck Chair?
The BM5568 is crafted from untreated FSC-certified teak, a naturally dense and oil-rich hardwood that performs well in outdoor conditions. Over time, the surface weathers from its warm honey tone to a silver-grey patina, which many designers consider part of the chair's character.
Is the BM5568 fully foldable for storage?
Yes. The BM5568 features a foldable frame, a deliberate choice by Mogensen that allows for compact storage without disassembly. This makes it practical for seasonal use as well as spaces where furniture must be moved or stored between uses.
What is Sunbrella fabric and why is it used for outdoor cushions?
Sunbrella is a solution-dyed acrylic textile engineered for outdoor environments. Its resistance to UV fading, moisture, and mildew makes it a standard specification for high-quality outdoor furniture cushions, offering durability without the stiff or synthetic hand-feel common to lesser outdoor fabrics.
How does the BM5568 reflect Børge Mogensen's design philosophy?
Mogensen was guided by a belief that good design should serve the everyday with honesty and without excess. The BM5568 distills that sensibility into outdoor form: a clean frame, a practical fold, proportions calibrated for rest. There is no decorative gesture that does not also do work.
Does teak outdoor furniture require maintenance or treatment?
Untreated teak is naturally resistant to moisture and decay and requires no sealing or oiling to perform outdoors. If left untreated, it develops a silver-grey patina over time. Owners who prefer to preserve the original warm tone can apply teak oil periodically, though this is entirely a matter of aesthetic preference.
