Description
The Teddy Lounge Chair is a comfortable rattan lounge chair designed by Viggo Boesen in 1936. The Teddy chair forms part of Sika-Design’s exclusive ICONS collection, which presents furniture by some of the most talented designers and architects of our time.
Boesen was known as one of the best designers in the heyday of Danish design. Teddy is Boesen’s interpretation of the popular ear flap chair from the mid-19th century. The chair was named Teddy because the design resembles a teddy bear hug. The name both describes the appearance of the chair and the feeling when leaning back into it.
The Teddy Lounge Chair is handcrafted in sustainable Indonesian rattan and woven by skilled wicker makers. Sika-Design carefully selects its rattan and uses only the best quality. Rattan is a remarkably strong and indestructible material and therefore rattan design furniture can last for generations.
In the same iconic design, you find the matching Teddy Footstool. The footstool completes the lounge chair and adds extra comfort.

Teddy Lounge Chair
Designed by Viggo Boesen
Viggo Boesen
Trained as an architect, Viggo Boesen was an influencer of the Scandinavian ‘Funkis-style’ villas and homes of the 1930’s. However with a special interest in design, Boesen designed a number of pieces of modernist profiled wicker furniture, which were based on the strength and durability of rattan. His pieces have an organic flow and embrace the body smoothly and tenderly. Boesen’s unique and inspiring designs firmly place him among the designers of the ‘Danish golden age’.
