Characterized by their striking geometric composition, the chairs feature bold, rectilinear armrests and legs that create a sculptural, architectural presence. Fully upholstered in a vibrant orange wool fabric, they are accented by visible stitching along the edges, emphasizing both craftsmanship and construction.

originally conceived for metz & co. In amsterdam, the utrecht model reflects rietveld’s rational and experimental approach, rooted in the principles of the de stijl movement. The design balances comfort with a strong visual identity, making it both a functional seating piece and a statement object.

these armchairs remain among the most recognizable and celebrated works of 20th-century design, appreciated for their timeless aesthetic and historical significance. Ideal for both modern and eclectic interiors, they bring a bold touch of color and form to any space.
