AH501 Outdoor side chair, teak

The AH Outdoor collection by Carl Hansen & Søn adds a dose of timeless Danish design to your outdoor space, whether it be a spacious patio or a compact urban balcony. Designed by architect Alfred Homann in 2022, the elegantly minimalist collection consists of a variety of furniture suitable for any occasion from hosting a large garden party to relaxing in the company of just yourself and perhaps a good book.

Characterised by a simple and functional design language, model AH501 is a classic side chair perfect for dining or a coffee break outdoors. The wooden chair is stackable and therefore easy to store away for the winter, making it ideal for smaller outdoor spaces like balconies on the one hand, or for cafés and restaurants on the other. Seat cushions are available separately, should you like to make the chair extra comfortable.

Just like all furniture in the AH Outdoor collection, the chair is made of certified teak wood. The durable material ages beautifully, turning from a warm brown to a dignified silvery grey. If you wish to keep the original colour, be sure to oil the furniture before the first use and regularly thereafter.
