Further details
The Steltman chair was originally designed to complement the refurbishing of the Steltman Jewellery shop, Den Haag, the Netherlands. Some of these original examples, all manufactured by G.A.v.d.Groenikan, had a leather-padded seat. The commission for the shop was concluded shortly before Rietveld's death in June 1964, however G.A.v.d.Groenikan subsequently manufactured a further six examples of this chair, that were presented with either a limed or lacquered finish.
