Set of 4 wooden dining chairs 66 model by Alvar Aalto for Artek 60s
The unmistakable Chair 66 by Artek is a chair with a classic and versatile design, designed in 1935 by the brilliant Finnish designer Alvar Aalto.
Appreciated for its simple and universal character, the 66 chair by Artek marks the tradition of classic wooden kitchen and bar chairs. The large backrest, similar to a handle, makes the chair particularly comfortable, flexible and easy to move; while the choice of Finnish birch wood, used for the structure, gives it lightness and resistance. Perfect for any environment, the Chair 66 by Alvar Aalto is pure expression of the designer's great mastery in the curvature of wood.
Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto (Kuortane, February 3, 1898 - Helsinki, May 11, 1976) was a Finnish architect and designer, one of the most important figures in 20th century architecture and remembered - together with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Walter Gropius, Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier – as master of the Modern Movement.
The name Artek has always evoked a design icon. And it could not be otherwise given that the founder, Alvar Aalto, was one of the pioneers of Scandinavian design. Born in 1935 to create and promote the furnishings designed by the Finnish architect, Artek soon transformed its mission, thanks to the contributions of the other three partners, Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl. The founders pursued the intention of producing objects that integrate art and technology, as the name itself suggests. Artek has always favored the use of natural materials, starting with wood, the raw material that is the foundation of Alvar Aalto's work. from the experiments of the master on curved wood and on the joints of solid wood, objects with a fluid and organic line are born, characterized by an extraordinary duration over time. Indestructible stools, armchairs, tables and chairs, made in the 1930s, are still in use today, and the minimalist design makes them suitable for any location, from residential to public facilities. Artek objects have always been mass-produced and hand-finished by skilled craftsmen. The production is mostly concentrated in the Turku plant, in Finland, where the carpenters, specialized in the manual bending of birch, in the production of laminated wood, plywood and veneers and in lacquering, produce the finished pieces without the help of intermediaries.
