About the Dennie Chair

Nanna Ditzel, who was one of the most influential modern furniture designers in Denmark, passed away in 2005. Her daughter Dennie, who oversees her parents’ design heritage, asked Onecollection to relaunch the chair which has always held a special place in her mother’s house. To Dennie, it is her cozy childhood chair, where she sat safely and had stories read out loud to her. The Dennie Chair combines style with casual comfort. Whether placed in the living room or the office, the curved shape and soft seat  create a welcoming vibe that invoke relaxed conversations.

Nanna Ditzel was trained to be a cabinetmaker and also graduated from the Industrial Arts and Crafts College in 1946. Together with her husband Jørgen Ditzel she designed jewelry, furniture and textiles. They established their own design studio in 1946.Â
