M16 Ermelunden Bench with backrest

The backrest holds two angles — one for sitting upright at the table, one for leaning back with coffee.

Børge Mogensen studied how people actually sit before shaping the M16 Ermelunden bench in 1965; its dual-angle backrest supports both postures. In nature-oiled pine with the series' wide anti-sink feet, it is made by FDB Møbler, the studio Mogensen led from its 1942 founding.

Common Questions

What is special about the backrest?
Mogensen shaped it with two different angles, so it supports you when sitting up straight at a table and again when you settle into a more relaxed lean.

Did Mogensen use this furniture himself?
Yes — he kept Ermelunden pieces in his private garden in Gentofte and at his holiday home near Limfjorden, which says more than any review.

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.
