Side table "Divan Table" by Gerrit Rietveld for Cassina, 1924

This Gerrit Rietveld divan table , designed in 1924, is an iconic piece of furniture that originated in the famous Schröder Rietveld House in Utrecht. The design was created at the request of Truus Schröder and is an integral part of Rietveld's architectural and interior design vision.

The sleek, open design and clear geometric lines reflect Rietveld's unique ability to combine functionality and aesthetics . The table embodies the essence of the De Stijl movement : simplicity, balance, and a radical reduction to pure forms.

Identical examples can be admired at the Centraal Museum Utrecht , where the Schröder House and Rietveld's works serve as references for modernist design. With its minimalist design language and open structure, the table is both a functional piece of furniture and a sculptural work of art.

Rietveld created this divan table not as a standalone object, but as an integral part of the overall architectural experience of the Schröder House. This makes it more than just a piece of furniture, but a tangible milestone in design history.
