About the Item

Jan Cornelius Rietveld’s *Media Cabinet* (1956) is a 46.5 x 102 x 45 cm painted plywood piece embodying modernist functionality and simplicity. Featuring an open storage section, divided compartments for media, and two minimalist drawers, its clean lines and utilitarian design reflect Rietveld’s connection to the principles championed by his father, Gerrit Rietveld. The black and gray painted finish enhances its timeless, versatile appeal. Originally part of photographer Violette Cornelius’s Amsterdam home, the cabinet demonstrates Rietveld’s ability to merge practicality with modernist aesthetics. Compact and thoughtfully designed, it serves as both a functional piece and a collectible example of mid-century modern design. This cabinet highlights Dutch modernist craftsmanship and Rietveld’s enduring legacy. Additional information: Material: Painted plywood Dimension: 46.5 x 102 x 45 cm
