Beyond Seating, pure Architecture. Forget everything you know about a "chair." This Steltman re-edition "in the style of" from the 1980s is an exercise in asymmetrical balance and negative space. Originally conceived by Gerrit Rietveld in 1963, this specific piece captures the bold, experimental energy of its 80s production, a period where design rediscovered the power of primary forms. A mirror-image play of solid volumes. It doesn't just occupy a room; it defines it.
We’ve treated this piece with the respect it deserves. A careful conservative restoration has breathed new life into the larch wood. The surface has been meticulously cleaned and refinished to reveal a warm, tactile grain. It carries the "honest" marks of time, subtle traces of its 40-year history that certify its authenticity and vintage soul.
Raw, architectural, and unapologetically bold. It fits a high-end gallery space as perfectly as a warm, minimalist living room.
