Exquisite textures, natural materials and practicality, the MG501 Cuba Chair by Morten Gøttler takes extra seating to a new level. It features a solid oak frame, with the paper cord around the frame forming a comfortable seat and back and providing excellent support as they gently follow the body's contours. This folding lounge chair is ideal as an extra or permanent fixture. Its light and foldable frame can easily be hung on a wall or placed on a floor stand for convenient storage. Meanwhile, the chair has all the elegance of a sculpture with its natural materials and evident craftsmanship. The MG501 Cuba Chair thus captures all Gøttler is known for—his clean, easy aesthetic and well-thought-out form, as well as his designs offering exquisite comfort, and close attention to detail—all created using high-quality materials.

After working with product development and design for a number of companies, Morten Gøttler (b. 1944) opened his own design studio in 1972. He has since worked in a wide range of genres, including domestic art, packaging, toys, graphics and lighting for Danish and international companies.
In 1984, Gøttler decided to focus primarily on furniture design, using an approach rooted in the modern Scandinavian design tradition and the strong belief that innovation is the foundation for successful design. Gøttler's clean, easy aesthetic characterized by well-thought-out form, exquisite comfort, and close attention to detail are all brought to life using high-quality materials.
Carl Hansen & Søn's products embody the narrative of the finest classical furniture art, created by some of Denmark's leading architects and designers—including Frits Henningsen, Kaare Klint, Mogens Koch, Poul Kjærholm and Ole Wanscher—as well as the Japanese architect Tadao Ando and the Austrian design trio EOOS.
With solid foundations in Danish traditions of joinery, blended with deep insight into the latest production technology, we make furniture of durable beauty and value, distinguished by full respect for sustainable materials.
