The architects behind this chair are Nanna Ditzel and her husband Jørgen Ditzel. They designed the Madame chair in 1951 and their experimental approach to materials resulted in the shape of a shell. With its soft and feminine shapes, the name became Madame. The chair is part of Sika-Design's ICONS collection, which consists exclusively of furniture designed by renowned designers. The chair has been available for indoor use for many years and is now also available as a weather-resistant outdoor chair.
A seat and back cushion can be purchased for the Madame chair in any optional fabric, sewn on our Danish sewing department. We also offer to sew cushion in your own fabric, please contact us for more information about material use.

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. 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 outdoor cushions we use high quality foam that drains water rapidly while circulating air with optimal efficiency. These are presented with Italian Tempotest fabrics that are rotting proof and immune to formation of mold and fungus. Cushions that are made to order cannot be returned.
