Model 66 Chairs

Alvar Aalto (Finland 1898-1976)

A single chair, and a set of four model 66 chairs. Circa 1940s.

Beech plywood. Some with early brown Artek stamps ‘Alvar Aalto design. Made in Finland’.

These are early production chairs with the finger-joints to the sides of the seat construction and the five laminate supports on the bend of the leg. They have had the surfaces lightly rejuvenated and now have a superb colour and light patina.

Price: 630 euro (single chair) 2.550 euro (set of four chairs)

Alvar Aalto (Finland 1898-1976)

Four early production model 60 stools.

Birch wood / 1930s for Finmar UK.

Rare set of classic Scandinavian modernist stools. These three-legged stacking stools have a superb colour and patina. One stool has its Finmar label (writing has worn off) and on one stool it can be seen that there was once a label (the other two do not have labels).

Price: 5.300 euro (set of four)
