Mother-of-Pearl Elegance for the Garden: The Nacre Lounge Chair by Unopiù with Hand-Woven WaProLace® Weave.
The name says it all: "Nacre" – the French word for mother-of-pearl – describes a lounge chair that captivates with soft, rounded shapes and warm colors. The hand-woven WaProLace® weave in Antique Brown evokes the delicate beauty of polished mother-of-pearl, while the graphite-colored aluminum frame provides an elegant contrast. The result is a chair that impresses equally on the terrace and in the conservatory – sensual, timeless, and subtly beautiful.
The frame, made of powder-coated aluminum in graphite color, forms a sleek, durable structure that showcases the weave like a precious frame. WaProLace® is a synthetic weave developed and registered by Unopiù: handcrafted from specially treated polyethylene that is UV-resistant, anti-oxidant, fire-retardant, and anti-static – yet authentically reproduces the warm, natural look of natural wicker. The fiber is dirt-repellent, liquid-impermeable, and effortless to clean.
What distinguishes the Nacre is the rare combination of sensual design and uncompromising weather protection. Classic rattan chairs must be stored indoors over winter – WaProLace® withstands harsh winter weather without loss of color or deformation. The chair weighs only 8 kg: light enough to spontaneously rearrange, robust enough to remain outdoors permanently.
With dimensions of W 80 × D 70 × H 89 cm and a seat height of 38 cm, the Nacre offers deep, relaxed seating comfort. The wide seat and gently curved backrest invite you to linger – for reading, conversation, or contemplation. A matching cushion in natural colors perfectly completes the look.
The Nacre lounge chair harmoniously integrates into the diverse Unopiù range and complements the collection of lounge chairs at Garten-Stuhl with a distinctive signature. Discover the entire range of lounge furniture at Garten-Stuhl and create your personal outdoor retreat.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Nacre Lounge Chair
What is WaProLace® and why is it better than rattan?
WaProLace® is a patented synthetic weave developed by Unopiù, made from specially treated polyethylene. Unlike real rattan, it is fully UV-resistant, fire-retardant, anti-static, and does not shrink – with an identical appearance and warm natural wicker feel.
Is the Nacre chair suitable for year-round outdoor use?
Yes – WaProLace® is specially designed for outdoor use and withstands harsh winter weather without loss of quality. However, a protective cover is recommended for prolonged periods of non-use.
How do I clean the Nacre chair?
The WaProLace® fibers are liquid-impermeable and dirt-repellent. For cleaning, lukewarm water with a mild detergent and a soft cloth are sufficient. The aluminum frame requires no special care.
Can I combine a cushion with the Nacre chair?
The Nacre is comfortable even without a cushion – the hand-woven weave already provides a pleasant back support. However, an additional cushion in natural or earthy tones emphasizes the warm appeal of the chair and increases comfort for longer sitting.
