This extremely rare Alvar Aalto Hallway chair is an early design created specifically for the Paimio Sanitorium. Its bent ply seating sits snugly on a solid birch frame, featuring delicately inlaid arm details. Despite its age, the chair remains in its original vintage condition, exuding a delightful patina from years of use. Dating back to the 1930s, this piece is truly one of a kind. Alvar Aalto, born in 1898 in the quaint Finnish town of Kuortane, is a renowned architect and designer whose work spans the entire 20th century. He was widely regarded for his designs that embodied warmth and humanity, prioritizing aesthetic appeal over practicality. Aalto's commitment to the concept of "gesamtkunstwerk," or a total work of art, is evident in every aspect of his buildings, down to the smallest details of their interiors.
