In 1956 Jorgen and Nanna Ditzel designed a spacious armchair with round, organic shapes. It was unofficially called “Nursing chair,” presumably because it had ample space and provided comfortable support for a nursing mother with her child in her arms. The chair has not been in production for many years and has only been found at auctions or from vintage furniture dealers. Now Brdr. Petersen in cooperation with Nanna Ditzel Design has reconstructed the chair from a vintage piece since the original drawings for the chair has been missing for a long time.

The armchair has never had an official name, but the chair has now been named “Oda Chair” as a tribute to the Japanese professor and furniture collector Noritsugu Oda, who was a good friend and supporter of Nanna Ditzel and her work. The Oda Chair is available in fabric and legs in oak, walnut or teak. Matching the chair there is a small footstool.
