Candidates chairs

Does anyone know why every player gets a different chair and what's the criteria for getting a specific chair? Just something I noticed while watching a bit of it today that every player gets a different one for no apparent reason. Anybody knows why?
The chess.com commentators mentioned that players can bring their own chairs, but in this tournament one player (I forgot which one) was not allowed to use the chair he brought.
