Carl Hansen Chairs

Use a dampened, soft, non-abrasive, lint-free colourless cloth to wipe the entire surface of your wood, moving in the direction of the grain. Dry the wood using a second non-abrasive cloth. Remember to wipe in the direction of the wood grain. You do not need to polish the wood as part of your regular maintenance, but polishing can restore the wood's natural shine if it begins to look dull. Never use wax-based polish or ammonia-based cleaning products on your wood.

  1. Does the BK11 Outdoor Chair come with cushions?
  2. As standard, the Carl Hansen BK11 Outdoor Lounge Armchair by Bodil Kjaer does not come with cushions. Made with water-resistant Sunbrella fabric, the BK11 cushions (available to purchase separately) come in, Charcoal 54048 or Canvas 5453 colourways.
  3. What is Bodil Kjær famous for?
  4. Bodil Kjaer is a Danish architect and professor of architecture and design. Kjaer has made significant contributions to Scandinavian Modern design styles. Iconic pieces of furniture such as the Karakter Bodil Kjaer desk (coined "The most beautiful desk in the world") and the Carl Hansen BK outdoor collection.
  5. What maintenance does Carl Hansen's Outdoor BK collection require?
  6. Made from solid high-quality FSC-certified teak the BK11 Chair is very durable and weather resistant. The natural oils in teak wood also protect it from rot and insects. Untreated teak (pale light brown in colour) will change to a silver-grey over time. Whilst this is normal if you want to keep more of the original colour you can oil it. Untreated teak is also prone to discolouring when wet, for example, ring marks from drinks. If it's the oiled teak version, be sure to re-oil before the wood starts to look dry and pale. Covering and regularly cleaning Carl Hansen outdoor furniture will preserve it further, stopping dirt and algae from discolouring the surface.
  7. Should I cover my Carl Hansen Outdoor Furniture to protect it from the weather in the United Kingdom?
  8. The weather in the UK is particularly hard on garden furniture. The sun will also discolour all materials from wood to rattan, metal to plastic. Covering Carl Hansen outdoor furniture will preserve the original colouration for as long as possible. This will defend the BK11's solid wood frame from the elements. Protecting teak (oiled or untreated) with covers will massively slow the ageing process.
  9. Does the Bodil Kjaer BK11 require assembly?
  10. Yes, the BK11 Chair requires basic assembly. The elements that make up the BK11 consist of a backrest, seat, cross strut and two armrests. Assembly is a straightforward process, using an Allen key and sixteen screws (of three lengths) to fix the elements together. Building Kjaer's BK11 Chair may require two people as it weighs approximately 19kg (similar to two car tyres).

        Great range of products.

        Purchased a beautiful rug from here and had a smooth overall buying experience.

        The service is superb and the website is so intuitive! 10 out of 10! :D Lee

        Fantastic service, Jonathan was extremely helpful through my purchase.

        Definitely recommend and would use again.

        Thanks! Angela

        Very good service, great communication and arrived very promptly

        Thank you

        Recently purchased a Nordic Style candle holder, which I had admired at a recent stay at a holiday home in Norfolk.  Product arrived very quickly. Contact via email from Jonathan. Excellent customer service and a gorgeous product too.

        Thank you Jonathan and all at Olson and Baker.

        Fantastic customer service throughout the ordering process.

        Great products - really pleased with my order.

        So glad I came across Olson & Baker for my home accessories that I would not find elsewhere on the High Street.

        Olson + Baker were wonderful to deal with.

        We purchased our item (a beautiful coat hook) but had to delay delivery due to a trip overseas.

        We weren't dealing with an automated system, just real people who cared enough to help.

        Bought some lovely wine glasses as a gift, quick delivery, great customer service and high quality product.

        Would definitely buy from Olson and Baker again.

        It has been an absolute pleasure buying a lovely piece of furniture from Olsen + Baker. Russell has been a delight to deal with, keeping me informed at every step of the delivery, even down to which colour would fit with my decor - nothing was too much.

        I can’t recommend highly enough.

        Excellent product but more importantly during these difficult times was the customer service level and great delivery team ....

        take note Heal’s as you’ve not got a clue how to service customers

        Beautiful and high quality furniture!

        Excellent delivery and customer services, even during difficult times like Covid 19.

        First class service.

        The Olson Baker team continue to deliver outstanding advice and product knowledge.

        Lovely website, great communication, fast delivery and they came in at a price other shops couldn't compete with on the chair I was after.

        Easily recommended.

        Olson + Bakers service and products have been outstanding. I can't recommend Jonathan at Olson + Baker enough.

        He is an absolute star and has gone out of his way to provide superb service.

        Beautiful item arrived earlier than indicated.

        Customer service informed me of this & then followed up after delivery to make sure it arrived safely.

        Highly recommend!

        Really excellent customer service. Can not recommend this company highly enough - the products are high quality and their communication with the customer is first class. Jonathon always responded promptly to any queries and was very helpful.

        I would definitely buy from them again.

        Excellent communication and speedy delivery...

        Couldn't have been better and will certainly buy from the company again.
