Originally designed in 1934 to make use of surplus wooden shipping crates, the Crate Collection has been relaunched in a Rietveld Originals x HAY collaboration. Made with respect for the original design, the Crate Dining Chair shares the same precisely balanced proportions and transparent construction to minimize production costs and optimize the assembly process.

Featuring a gently sloping back and armrests, the chair’s simplicity and spatial design mirrors the designer’s architectural style – providing functionality and comfort without taking up space. Crafted in solid pine with a water-based lacquered finish in several color options, the Crate Dining Chair is suitable for a variety of outdoor settings. For extra comfort, it can be supplemented with optional seat cushions in selected textiles. The Crate Collection also offers other types of seating and tables.
