M15 Ermelunden Bench With out backrest

A 1965 Mogensen garden bench, re-issued in thermo-treated ash for owners who want it outside year after year.

This M15 Ermelunden bench without backrest renders Børge Mogensen's design in nature-oiled thermo ash — heat-treated for greater stability and resistance outdoors — with the series' signature wide feet that keep it from sinking into grass. From FDB Møbler, where Mogensen led design from 1942.

Common Questions

What is thermo ash?
Ash wood treated with heat and steam, which reduces moisture uptake and makes the timber more dimensionally stable and durable outdoors — with a darker, richer tone than untreated ash.

Thermo ash or pine — which Ermelunden should I choose?
Thermo ash (66.1 lbs) is the heavier, more weather-stable choice with a darker tone; the pine version is lighter in both color and weight and priced lower.

Care Guide +

FDB Møbler furniture is crafted from FSC-certified wood, powder-coated steel, and OEKO-TEX textiles. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight. Dust with a soft cloth; clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For lacquered surfaces, avoid harsh chemicals. For oiled wood, re-oil periodically. For upholstery, vacuum regularly and address spills promptly. Lift furniture rather than dragging across floors.
