Know before you buy
The chaise is crafted from high-quality, sustainably harvested teak. Over time, if left outdoors, the wood will naturally weather from its original golden-brown hue to a soft, silvery-gray patina.
No, cushions are not included with the purchase of the Bodil Kjær Outdoor Teak Chaise Lounge. You will need to purchase them separately to complete the set.
Yes, the teak construction is naturally weather-resistant and designed for outdoor use. However, we recommend covering the piece or storing it during harsh winter months to maintain the integrity of the wood over the long term.
No, the chaise arrives fully assembled. You can begin using it immediately upon delivery.
The chaise features a fixed, robust frame and is not foldable. It is designed as a permanent, sculptural piece for your patio or indoor space.
To clean, simply wipe the frame with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washers, which can damage the natural grain of the wood.
