As with Red Blue Chair (M.1-2022), Rietveld was often thinking of the possibilities for mass production and therefore incorporated pre-made round staves into this design. However, these proved to lack stability as they had significantly less contact area compared to square timber. Also, as discussed by Ida van Zijl of the Dutch Design Museum, leather was a poor choice of material for a piano stool as it creaked. ‘People complain about the creaking of the leather when the music is quiet,’ Rietveld wrote to the architect J. J. P. Oud, for whom the chair was intended. ‘Amidst the noise at home I hadn’t thought about that.’ reference term-107318 adlib-term-107318 d27559f3-e90c-35cd-b7e4-46eaeb9ac521 20th Century reference term-106627 adlib-term-106627 d749a437-8b0b-3e80-9db8-7c4f9c19df91 literal Netherlands Netherlands country Utrecht reference term-68515 adlib-term-68515 38643dbc-c37d-32ce-82d0-5b28cc8bbef8 stool reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum
