Sika-Design Rita Exterior Dining Chair
RITA EXTERIOR DINING CHAIR
RITA EXTERIOR DINING CHAIR
Designed by Nanna & Jørgen Ditzel
The Rita dining chair was designed by Nanna Ditzel in 1965.
The unconventional legs of the sculptural chair enable it to stand on all outdoor surfaces without the legs digging into the ground.
Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005) was known for her innovative design approach where she challenged existing design thinking. The Rita chair is a fine example of Nanna Ditzel’s playful approach to design.
The Rita Exterior dining chair is handcrafted in aluminum and ArtFibre making it resistant to all weather types. The aluminum frame is carefully handpainted to resemble the cozy look of rattan.

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

CARE AND 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 mission is to produce furniture that our customers can keep for many years, and with the right maintenance, maybe even for the rest of their lives.
Our top priority is to produce quality furniture that can last for generations and eliminate the need for frequent replacements. Due to this philosophy, the materials we use in the production of each piece of furniture must be durable and robust.

EXTERIOR | ALU-RATTAN & ARTFIBRE
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.
OUR CUSHIONS
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. Please notice: Cushions that are made to order cannot be returned.
