Sika Icons Madame Rattan Chair with White Cushion - Natural

Sika Icons Madame Rattan Chair with White Seat Cushion – Natural | Online8 New Zealand

A genuine mid-century design classic, still made the original way. Nanna and Jørgen Ditzel drew the Madame in 1951, working rattan into a rounded shell that curves around the sitter rather than boxing them in. Sika Design produce it as part of their Icons collection, hand-woven by artisans descended from the workshop that made the first ones, and it arrives with a white seat cushion.

Why It Stands Apart

• A 1951 Ditzel Design: An authentic piece by two of Denmark's most inventive mid-century designers, not a reproduction of one.
• Hand-Woven Rattan: Made by Sika Design's artisans using the techniques the original workshop developed.
• Sculptural Shell Form: The curved back wraps around the seat, giving the chair real presence from every angle.
• Hard-Wearing Cushion: The white seat cushion is rated to 20,000 Martindale rubs with a top colour fastness score of 5.
• Wide, Relaxed Seat: 850mm across with a 430mm seat height and 550mm seat depth — built for settling into.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an authentic Sika Design piece?
Yes. It comes from Sika Design's Icons collection, which reissues original designs in collaboration with the descendants of the artisans who first produced them, rather than copying them.

Can I use it outdoors or on a covered deck?
No — this is natural rattan and is specified for indoor use only. Damp and UV exposure will shorten its life considerably.
