Rita Exterior Dining Chair

This furniture is designed by Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005) who was an internationally recognized Danish designer. Together with her husband, Jørgen Ditzel (1921-1961), she established a design studio in 1946. In 1950, the couple began working with wicker in the renowned workshop founded by the famous wicker maker Robert W.

Ditzel's experimental approach to materials resulted in several innovative pieces of furniture made from rattan. This cooperation was the beginning of a renewed status for wicker furniture in interior design. Read more about Nanna and Jørgen Ditzel here.

The furniture in our Exterior collection is handcrafted in Alu-Rattan and Sika-Design ArtFibre®. Alu-Rattan is powder-coated aluminum that has been developed to resemble rattan and its unique shaping ability. Powder coating has the advantage that it can withstand hard wear and high temperatures.

ArtFibre® is a unique fiber made of dyed hard-wearing polyethylene that is temperature and UV resistant. The fiber has a strong structure that can maintain its shape for years on end.

MAINTENANCE Our Exterior furniture requires no maintenance. The furniture is suitable for standing outside all year round and is easy to clean. For general cleaning, the furniture can be washed with water mixed with mild soap.

Our cushions are developed in our Danish sewing studio to add extra comfort and fit perfectly into each piece of furniture. For our indoor cushions, we use high-quality foam that keeps its shape and ensures optimal comfort. These are presented in a selection of high-quality fabrics with a wear resistance of minimum 20.000 Martindale. Cushions that are made to order cannot be returned.
