B5 Shelf
Danish design history, hung at whatever height suits the room — the widest B5 gives a student-era Mogensen design its longest run.
At 39.4 inches, this is the largest of three B5 widths from FDB Møbler — solid oak, nature lacquered, designed by Børge Mogensen while he was still at the Academy of Fine Arts Furniture School. As a modular system it expands: add further shelves above or below as books and records accumulate.

Common Questions
Is this the largest B5?
Yes — 39.4 inches wide by 8.3 deep, the widest of the three sizes. Smaller 31.5 and 15.7-inch versions can be combined with it in a modular arrangement.
How is the shelf finished?
In nature lacquered solid oak — a clear finish that keeps the grain visible and wipes clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
