Pair of Alvar Aalto Model 36/ 401 High Back Lounge Chairs
ARTEK
A special pair of Alvar Aalto 36/401 cantilevered armchairs in birch. These chairs were created in the early 1930's for use in the Paimio Sanitarium. An early use of bent and laminated plywood allowed for extreme strength and comfort with a subtle flex. Slight wings at the headrest allow for a little privacy and minimize distraction. These upholstered in their original rattan woven textile. Can be reupholstered to your needs. A really special pair of an iconic design by the master of Scandinavian Modern.
