Mid-century Table by Alvar Aalto for Artek, 1950s – New Linoleum Top Layer
€ 0
incl. BTW (indien van toepassing) volgens de margeregelingMid-century rectangular L-leg table (model 81b) designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek in ca. 1933. This dining table (can also be used as a desk) dates from ca. 1950 with a new linoleum top layer. Unlike Thonet, Alvar Aalto did not bend the wood with the aid of steam, but by means of the natural humidity of the Finnish Birch (saw and water); the pieces of inlaid wood (for reinforcement) in the bends are clearly visible. A rare table that you don’t come across very often anymore. Material birch wood and linoleum. Dimensions: h x w x d = 72 x 102 x 76 cm. The condition of the frame is good and solid, signs of wear due to use and age. The top has a new black linoleum top layer and can last for years. Source: Book Alvar Aalto Designer, Alvar Aalto Museum, pages 173 and 187. The price is only for the table, not the chairs and/or the lamp.
