The Marcella dining chair, designed by Danish designer Povl Eskildsen, is clearly inspired by Scandinavian design, with clean lines and a calm, balanced appearance. The distinctive rounded backrest and armrests are expertly crafted from a single flowing form, seamlessly continuing into the slender, rounded legs, giving the chair its refined and recognisable character.

The open shape of the backrest feels like a gentle embrace and, together with the included seat and back cushions, offers excellent seating comfort. The carefully applied rope weaving highlights the soft lines of the design and enhances the light and contemporary look of the chair.

The Marcella dining chair also combines beautifully with a variety of tables and looks particularly striking when placed around a boat-shaped Carmen table, where the rounded shapes of the chair naturally complement the organic form of the tabletop.

Thanks to its relatively light weight and the ability to stack the chairs (up to two), the Marcella dining chair is practical in everyday use and easy to store. The chair fits perfectly both indoors and outdoors, drawing attention with its natural materials and refined design.

Features – Marcella dining chair

The Marcella dining chair stands out through its combination of high-quality materials and elegant design. The mix of solid teak, rope and aluminium creates a strong, durable yet lightweight construction.

The chair is supplied as standard with a seat and back cushion in the colour Ash, providing immediate comfort and support. For a more personalised look, the cushions are also available in a wide selection of exclusive fabrics, including Sunbrella®, with a broad range of colours and textures to choose from.

Nylon glides are fitted under the legs to help prevent damage to both the floor and the chair, making it suitable for use on different surfaces.

The Marcella dining chair is part of the Marcella collection, which also includes the Marcella lounge. This makes it easy to create a cohesive outdoor space where dining and lounging blend together naturally.

Cushions – Marcella dining chair

The Marcella dining chair is supplied with a comfortable seat and back cushion in the colour Ash. These cushions provide pleasant support and enhance the seating comfort, even during longer dinners.

In addition, the cushions are available in a wide selection of high-quality outdoor fabrics, of Sunbrella® and Agora®. These fabrics are specifically developed for outdoor use and are known for their durability, colour fastness and ease of maintenance, allowing the chair to be tailored to the style of your garden or terrace.

Sustainability and materials

The Marcella dining chair is made from a carefully selected combination of materials: solid teak, polyethylene rope and powder-coated aluminium. These materials are chosen for their durability, strength and suitability for long-term outdoor use.

Teak is well known for its natural weather resistance and long lifespan, while the aluminium frame provides stability with a relatively low weight. The rope weaving is strong, shape-retaining and resistant to outdoor conditions, ensuring the chair maintains its appearance over time.

Maintenance – Marcella dining chair

For the maintenance of the teak elements, we recommend using the Traditional Teak care products. These products are specially developed to clean, protect and preserve the natural appearance of teak wood.

Teak Cleaner and Brightener 1 & 2
To clean weathered teak and restore its original warm colour, we recommend Teak Cleaner and Brightener 1 & 2. This product is suitable for periodic maintenance and visibly refreshes the wood.

Teak Sealer 3
If you would like to preserve the warm teak colour for as long as possible, Teak Sealer 3 is an excellent choice. The sealer is easy to apply and provides long-lasting protection against greying.

Teak PatinaShield 4 & 5
Teak PatinaShield is a colourless protective treatment that helps prevent dirt, moisture and food residues from penetrating the teak. This 2-in-1 maintenance product protects the surface while supporting the development of an even, natural silver-grey patina.

Designer – Povl Eskildsen

As a product of the classic Danish furniture tradition, Povl Eskildsen’s interest in design in general and furniture design in particular began at a young age while working in his parents’ furniture factory in Denmark. He later studied architecture at the renowned Aarhus School of Architecture.

At the start of his career, he worked with several Danish indoor furniture manufacturers before focusing on outdoor furniture. Povl collaborated with a number of well-known garden furniture brands and introduced a new sense of design to the outdoor furniture industry, particularly in teak outdoor furniture.

His designs brought the elegance and comfort, which had long been a standard in Danish indoor furniture, to the world of outdoor living. As a result, design and seating comfort became key elements and important selling points within the premium outdoor furniture segment.
