Jørgen Bækmark's J80 dining chair for FDB Møbler pairs its woven paper cord seat with a beech frame painted Steel Blue (RAL 5011), water-based — a near-navy that flatters both pale floors and the seat's natural straw tone.

Common Questions
Is Steel Blue closer to navy or grey?
Navy — a dark, slightly muted blue that functions like a classic neutral while giving more depth than black around a dining table.
What condition will the cord seat be in after years?
Paper cord tightens and patinates with use — it has been the standard Danish seat material for generations precisely because it endures daily dining.
