Honey Patinated Stool by Alvar Aalto for Artek, 1940s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The Stool 60 was designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek in the 1930s. The stool on offer is a very early version from around 1940 with a wonderful honey-coloured patina, manufactured by O.Y.. Huonekalu- ja Rakennustyötehdas A.B. or Artek. The stool has been cleaned. Nevertheless, some traces of use have remained on the underside in one place (see picture). If desired, the entire underside can be restored (included in the price). However, the patina on the underside is then partially lost.
