Carl Hansen & Son Bodil Kjaer BK14 Chaise

Yes, the BK14 is designed with a dual-purpose silhouette. When laid completely flat, it functions effectively as a sophisticated, low-profile bench suitable for both indoor and outdoor seating areas.

Because the teak is left untreated, it will naturally weather from its original golden-brown hue to a soft, silvery-grey patina when exposed to the elements. This process is purely aesthetic and does not compromise the structural integrity of the wood.

Yes, it is crafted from high-grade, sustainably sourced teak, which is naturally resistant to decay and insects. While it is built to endure outdoor environments, we recommend covering it or storing it during harsh winter months to prolong its lifespan.

The BK14 is typically delivered fully assembled or with minimal assembly required, depending on the specific shipping configuration. Please refer to the included instructions, as the joinery is precise and intended to be handled with care.

To maintain the original warm tone, you would need to apply a teak sealer or oil periodically. If you prefer the natural, weathered grey look, simply clean the surface occasionally with mild soap and water to remove debris.
