Article Number004.206.33Product details
To make the bench with backrest as comfortable as possible for you, we designed it with generous proportions for both the seat and the armrests so they provide good support.
The seat has a small edge at the back to keep a chair cushion in place.
Made of high-quality, sustainably sourced eucalyptus.
Eucalyptus is a durable, hard wood type suitable for outdoor use since it is compact and has a naturally high oil content that helps protect against weather and wind, drying out and mould.
The grey-coloured surface in three layers makes the bench with backrest even more durable for outdoor use and also makes it blend into the outdoor surroundings.
You can create a complete look in a timeless design for your outdoor space by combining the bench with backrest with BONDHOLMEN tables and chairs with armrest.

A tribute to handicraft and common sense
How can we make your life at home more comfortable with knowledge of how people lived in the past? One way is to look at traditional handicraft and historic everyday objects. Like designer duo Tina Christensen and Kai Legaard when they created BONDHOLMEN outdoor furniture.
Frilandsmuseet is an open-air museum in the northern outskirts of Copenhagen. Here Tina and Kai take regularly strolls to see how the average Scandinavian lived before there were Internet and mobile phones. “The museum is a treasure. There are houses and furniture from times when everything was created from a need and had a purpose. It’s very inspiring,” says Tina.
Timeless
In the old days, people had the same need as we do today; to work, relax and come together. BONDHOLMEN has generous proportions that make it comfortable to do that for a long time. “We wanted to make it easy to spend time in BONDHOLMEN. Eat, play games, reply to emails, have a cold drink or just talk. Whatever you want to do when you’re in your outdoor space.”
Function is in the details
Tina mentions that past generations had a particularly good eye for function; every detail was there for a reason. “People were also very careful with the materials they had and didn’t use more than they needed. Back then, it was called common sense. Today it is a way of being sustainable.” In the BONDHOLMEN series the legs are angled for steadiness, the seats have a small edge in the back to keep cushions in place and the furniture are easy to put away when the outdoor season ends. Every piece of furniture is made of sustainably sourced and high-quality eucalyptus wood. It’s details that make the modern outdoor life a little easier and more sustainable. For Tina and Kai it’s also a tribute to old handicraft and common sense.
Material
Lovable durable eucalyptus
Eucalyptus is a durable, hard wood type suitable for outdoor use since it is compact and has a naturally high oil content that helps protect against weather and wind, drying out and mould. For maximum protection it’s pre-treated with wood stain. By re-staining now and then you can enjoy it for many years.
