Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005) was an internationally recognized Danish designer.
Together with her husband Jørgen Ditzel (1921-1961), their first furniture designs
were exhibited while still students at the Arts and Crafts School in Copenhagen.
They quickly established their own design studio and started to work with wicker
in the renowned workshop founded by the famous wicker worker Robert W. in
1950. Ditzel’s experimental approach to materials resulted in multiple innovative
furniture made of rattan. Most known is their Hanging Egg chair that has enjoyed
praise worldwide ever since the distinctive sculptural shape was created by Nanna
& Jørgen Ditzel in 1959.
