About the Item
A striking and unconventional take on the iconic Crate Chair, originally designed by Dutch De Stijl master Gerrit Rietveld in the 1930s. This reimagined version retains the chair’s essential spirit—pure geometric forms, exposed construction, and honest use of materials—while introducing its own distinctive proportions and idiosyncratic detailing. Made out from a raw, utilitarian aesthetic, the design pays homage to Rietveld’s philosophy of making high-quality furniture accessible and straightforward, using readily available materials. Its angular silhouette and bold presence make it as much a sculptural statement as a functional seat. Perfect for collectors of modernist design and those drawn to reinterpretations of classic forms, this chair bridges the gap between historical influence and creative individuality.
