Condition good original. Selected Items – We change the way you think about forever. The iconic Red and Blue Armchair is considered one of the most important designs in modern furniture history. Created by Dutch designer Gerrit Thomas Rietveld and inspired by the principles of the De Stijl movement, this chair translates art, architecture, and furniture design into a radically reduced form. Its distinctive construction of clean lines and boldly colored planes turns the chair into a three-dimensional composition of space, color, and structure. The combination of a black frame, bright red backrest, and deep blue seat gives the piece a strong graphic presence—almost like a walk-in work of art. The example offered here was produced by Cassina and represents the highest level of manufacturing quality. As a licensed edition, it faithfully preserves Rietveld’s original concept while combining historical avant-garde design with timeless elegance. Condition report. The lacquer finish shows light wear in some areas. The seat and frame display normal signs of use. Overall, the chair is in very good and well-maintained condition.
