Product description

This chair was designed by Nanna Ditzel in 1951, when she was 28. It was exhibited in the 25th anniversary event of the Copenhagen Cabinetmaker's Guild Exhibition, but it was not commercialized at that time. It was commercialized in 2007 on the occasion of Nanna Ditzel Retrospective in Japan (Jan 27 to May 3, 2007). It was a limited production of 28 chairs made from the full-size drawing of that time.

Concept

Nanna Ditzel（1923-2005）
Nanna, having graduated from an arts and crafts school in 1946, established a joint office with her husband Jorgen Ditzel (deceased in 1961). After that, she won various awards in Milan Triennale, including the Gold Prize in 1960. Her design is characterized by feminine elegance and respect for the beauty of nature. She was engaged not only in furniture design but also in textile design. One interesting point of her chair design is that, depending on the color of the textile, the whole chair appears significantly different. The Hallingdal series of textiles of Kvadrat (a textile manufacturer in Denmark) designed by Nanna matches best with the chairs she designed.
