About the collection
The Nicolette collection combines technology and design, giving shape to a seat and stool with enveloping shapes and a robust and resistant structure.
With its sophisticated and contemporary design, the Nicolette stool and chair are perfect both in outdoor spaces and in elegant indoor environments.
With die-cast aluminum frames, in both versions, Nicolette comes in two variants: with back in perforated plate, which creates shadows on the seat, or dressed in a specific fabric for outdoor use, with a rigid pleating obtained by a patent.
The apparent modesty of Patrick Norguet veils a spirit animated by the concerns of perfection, detail and an object well-made. For the last 12 years, the designer with an atypical trajectory has thus engraved his name on the international design scene with strokes of precision, determination and discretion.
Designer
French designer recognised for clean industrial furniture for leading European brands. Nicolette is Patrick Norguet's collection for Ethimo.
In situ
Nicolette sits within the catalog of Ethimo, the Italian outdoor furniture house, and is designed by Patrick Norguet. Ethimo produces in Italy across specialty outdoor materials — teak, powder-coated aluminum, rope, ceramic, stone and outdoor fabrics — selected per collection, with established US trade representation.
For US trade specifiers, Nicolette carries the same material data sheets and US-trade documentation as the rest of the Ethimo catalog: ASTM F1858 outdoor furniture compliance where applicable, fire-code classification on cushion components, and chain-of-shipment documentation supplied with the invoice. Bespoke fabric or finish substitutions are accepted on COM workflow with confirmed yardage at quote stage; see the Sunbrella and Outdura specifier reference for the workflow at the European factory.
Net pricing for Nicolette is quoted at US trade volumes, before fabric grade, finish premium, and consolidated freight. Lead time is 8-14 weeks from the Italian factory to US port for standard configurations; bespoke dimensions, COM upholstery, or large hospitality volumes extend by 4-8 weeks. The collection is specified in US hospitality outdoor (boutique hotel terraces, resort pool decks, restaurant outdoor dining) and in premium residential outdoor (terrace, courtyard, poolside) installations.
Nicolette is designed by Patrick Norguet, produced by Ethimo in Italy. Full material specifications, dimensions, and finish options are supplied on request with the trade quote.
Yes. Ethimo runs a verified US trade programme. Net trade pricing for Nicolette is shared after qualification (designer of record, project scope) under the Ethimo trade terms applicable to premium European outdoor specifiers.
Most Ethimo collections, including Nicolette, accept COM upholstery and bespoke dimensions within manufacturer tolerance. See the FF&E procurement workflow for the full COM and bespoke sequence, including fabric yardage, factory shipping, and lead-time impact.
Ethimo outdoor pieces share a common care pattern: quarterly rinse with clean water and mild soap, twice-yearly inspection of cushions and fittings, and off-season storage of soft goods in freeze-thaw climates. Structural elements (aluminum, FSC teak, steel, stone) typically carry 5-10 year warranties; fabrics and cushions 2-3 years against UV and stitching. US service life on Ethimo outdoor is typically 15-25 years on structural elements and 5-10 years on cushions, with COM refresh extending the cycle.
