Utrecht armchair pair - Gerrit Rietveld, Cassina

An iconic piece of 20th-century design history, the Utrecht chair, also known as model 637, was designed in 1935 by the renowned Dutch architect and designer Gerrit Thomas Rietveld. It is distinguished by its bold geometric lines, low and enveloping seat, as well as its wide armrests and characteristic angular legs. It is recognisable by its visible contrasting stitching (here in a zigzag pattern), a signature of the model, which highlights the architectural structure of the seat and enhances its graphic aesthetic. Presented here in an elegant light blue hue, this chair adds a contemporary and refined touch to any interior. Its soft and bright colour fits seamlessly into a modern living room, a minimalist space, a design-oriented decor, or a more eclectic environment that combines iconic pieces with contemporary furniture. Edited by the prestigious Italian house Cassina (identifiable by the label under the seat), a guarantee of originality and quality craftsmanship, this iconic chair perfectly embodies the spirit of modernist design, the De Stijl movement, and timeless designer furniture.
