Versatile, timeless,
and carefully crafted
Børge Mogensen’s BM0488 Table Bench is praised for its subtle aesthetics and detailed craftsmanship.
Presented for the first time at the 1958 as a part of Mogensen’s ‘building furniture’-concept, enduring
furniture that could be added to and adapted over time in response to changing needs and living
situations. The table bench was originally created to complement the BM0865 Daybed, when these
two pieces, are paired together, their woven table top aligns seamlessly with the soft surface of the
daybed cushion, making them perfect partners. In 2021, Carl Hansen & Søn relaunched the BM0488
Table Bench in cane wicker and in 2023 a new variant BM0489 Table Bench with a natural paper cord
weave, woven from 335 metres of paper cord in a double weave pattern. Both Table Benches are
reinterpretations of Børge Mogensen’s original design from 1958.
