About Vitra Circle
In the Vitra Circle Stores, the idea of sustainability is key: used Vitra products are reconditioned, repaired if needed and put back into circulation.
With the Circle Stores in Brussels, Amsterdam and on the Vitra Campus, Vitra gives its products a second life and thus puts sustainable entrepreneurship into practice.
The Vitra furniture and accessories were used in showrooms, exhibitions and for mockups and may therefore show slight signs of use.
The price always depends on the condition of the product and the warranty period is extended again by two years. Buy online via the 'Click & Collect' system or visit our store on Friday or Saturday.
Our Story
Our story begins with the founding of Vitra in 1950. From the very beginning, the emphasis was on authentic and original design. The classics by designers such as Ray & Charles Eames, Jean Prouvé and Alexander Girard have become part of the history of contemporary design. In recent years, designers like Hella Jongerius, Konstantin Grcic and French brothers Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec, have left their mark on Vitra's impressive collection of furniture for home and office use.
Over the course of a year, Vitra sees its stock grow by hundreds of products. Among them are a lot of showroom items, products with slight transport damage as well as incorrectly ordered or delivered items. In the past, Vitra used to sell these products during an annual sale in the condition they were in, even if it wasn't optimal. This could be better, we felt, as these products deserve to be treated with more respect and the utmost care at all times.
For these reasons, we established the very first Vitra Circle Store in 2017, right here in Brussels.
At this Vitra Circle Store, we overhaul furniture and, if needed, repair and clean it. We then put them back on the market at interesting prices. The refurbished objects also receive a renewed two-year warranty certificate. In short, the products on offer are worthy of the Vitra authenticity label.
