‘Elling’sideboard was designed 1919 and executed in ca. 1974, just two years after the introduction of Gerrit Rietveld’s famous Red-Blue chair. He debuted this extraordinary table in oak. It was displayed in 1920 at the Voor de Kunst in Utrecht and purchased there by the Dutch architect Piet Elling (1897-1962). This early example was tragically destroyed by fire. The model was re-introduced in 1958 and made in a very limited quantity by one of Rietveld’s most trusted cabinetmakers, Gerard van de Groenekan (1904-1994). Groenekan began working for Rietveld as a sixteen-year old and eventually took over the woodworking facility in 1928 when Rietveld decided to focus on a career in architecture.
