Netherlands Lounge Chair, 1930s
About the Item
This striking armchair, crafted in the Netherlands during the 1930s, speaks a quiet but unmistakable language of modernist sophistication. Designed with architectural clarity, it marries form and function in a way that hints at Bauhaus principles—yet retains its own distinct voice.
The chair's frame is built from solid oak, stained and lightly varnished to bring out the depth of the wood grain. Mortise and tenon joints, fixed with wooden dowels, emphasize traditional craftsmanship, while the carefully braided cord that forms the seat and backrest adds a sense of visual lightness and refined texture.
Its proportions are perfectly balanced—sturdy yet graceful, structural yet inviting. The composition recalls the silhouette of a loom, perhaps a subtle nod to the influence of textile arts on early modernist design. Whether it was born of an architect’s vision or a skilled craftsperson’s hand, the result is a rare and quietly powerful object—minimalist, sculptural, and undeniably timeless.
This piece offers not just a place to sit, but a direct connection to a pivotal moment in design history—when utility, elegance, and innovation converged.

Crate Chair by Gerrit Rietveld, Designed in 1930s The Netherlands
By Gerrit Rietveld, Cassina
Located in Hellouw, NL
Nice Gerrit Rietveld 'Crate' chair. This chair is designed in 1934, however, we think this is a Cassina edition from the 1970s. This chair is made out of ash wood and has a colorless lacquer.
'Gerrit Rietveld designed the 'crate' series of furniture built from standardized pine boards – cheap material for packing crates – which were soon well-known as ‘crate furniture’. 'From 1935 on the progressive designs appeared at Metz & Co, where furniture by Rietveld had already been sold since 1930. The crate desk...
