Utrecht Chair – Vintage Collection

A landmark icon of modern architectural design, this armchair breaks away from traditional seating conventions with its bold, sculptural geometry. Designed in 1935, its distinctive silhouette seamlessly integrates structure and padding, defined by two sharp "L"-shaped armrests that double as front support legs for a reclined seat and backrest. Highlighted by signature contrast stitching, that traces its graphic contours, this timeless piece balances avant-garde aesthetic rigor with surprising ergonomic comfort, making it a powerful centerpiece for contemporary residential spaces and executive lounge environments alike.

Our Vintage Collection brings together carefully curated pieces from past collections, selected for their enduring design and timeless appeal. Outside the traditional retail cycle, these pieces offer a rare opportunity to discover distinctive designs, available directly from stock.
