“Today we socialise around the dining table more than ever, and to enjoy these moments with good food and interesting conversations, a chair is needed that’s comfy to sit on. My idea with TEGELÖN was to create such a chair for outdoor use. Instead of armrests, I chose to make the seat and back wider. The shape feels elegant and inviting while you sit softly and comfortably thanks to the handwoven ropes. I hope the chair sees you enjoy many long hours with loved ones."

Outdoor products will be exposed to a lot more things than indoor products, such as sun and rain, dust and dirt. That is why we at IKEA carefully select suitable materials and finishes for our outdoor products and put them through tough tests, so you can be sure they are durable for outdoor use.

How do you create durable furniture for balconies and terraces as comfortable as the padded furniture we have indoors? The team behind TEGELÖN outdoor chair combined traditional handicraft with modern materials. The chair has a seat and back made with a woven rope that has a rubber-like core. It gives a look and feel that can match your indoor furniture in both comfort and style.
