wicker bottle
In the future I envisage, for example, a piece of material which, after a series of mechanical functions, leaves the machine as a finished chair in only 10 minutes and in such a neutral form that it can fit into any interior because it is such a simple element. ” 1 Four aluminium armchairs are known to exist today, – which respectively belong to a private collection, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Delft University of Technology and the Vitra Design Museum.
Concurrent with the aluminum chair, Rietveld also designed furniture of folded wicker: a chair, dining room chairs, and even a bed.

Zur selben Zeit wie den Aluminiumsessel entwarf Rietveld auch Möbel aus gefaltetem Korbgeflecht: einen Sessel, Esszimmerstühle und sogar ein Bett.
