Alvar Aalto’s iconic 60 Stool is the most elemental of furniture pieces, equally suitable as a seat, a table, storage unit, or display surface. The legs are mounted directly to the underside of the round seat without the need for complicated connecting elements.
Thanks to its geometry, the stool can be stacked to save space in a spiralling tower sculpture. Manufactured in 48 production steps at the A-Factory in Turku, Finland, Stool 60 is available in a wide variety of colours and finishes. So strong is Artek's confidence in the production process that results in the Stool 60, and to celebrate the iconic piece's 90th anniversary, the Finnish brand are now offering a lifetime guarantee on every piece sold.
As one of the great architects and furniture designers of the 20th century, Finnish designer Alvar Aalto breathed life and warmth into modernism, placing emphasis on "organic" geometry; supple, natural materials; and a respect for human feeling.
Alvar Aalto's collection of mid-century furniture and lighting is produced exclusively by Scandinavian brand Artek including the iconic Artek 60 Stool.
