Set of vintage production model 66 chair by Alvar Aalto made in the 1960s. The chairs are made of laminated birch and black linoleum and have a beautiful glow and patina. Beautifully worn but without any structural damages.
\nAaltos iconic Chair 66 is a universal wooden chair in the tradition of classic kitchen and café chairs; its visible, additive construction logic is full of character and pleasing to the eye. The wide backrest offers comfort and flexibility, while the Finnish birch used to make the chair is both durable and lightweight. With its handle-like seat back, Chair 66 is easy to move wherever it is needed. Available in a variety of colours and finishes.
\nIn the late 1920s, architect and designer Alvar Aalto began experimenting with bending wood. In collaboration with furniture manufacturer Otto Korhonen, the Finnish master developed a ground-breaking process that resulted in the L-leg. To create the L-leg, cuts are made in the end of a piece of wood, with the slits extending just below the level of the planned bend. Wood veneer strips are then inserted and glued. This simplifies the bending process and increases the stability of the component. Aalto called the L-leg “the little sister of the architectural column,” and its arrival announced a break with longstanding traditions of furniture production. Patented by Aalto in 1933, this technique meant that the warm, organic qualities of wood could be used to form stable hardwearing designs.<\/span><\/p>\n
