Kanto is designed to hold an array of objects, from your favourite magazines to wood for your fire. Honouring Artek’s tradition of bentwood products, this versatile piece is made from a single sheet of form-pressed birch veneer. Its fluid lines make it a natural addition to a wide range of diverse interiors, while the timeless nature of the design means that it will remain a perennial favourite for generations to come.
The Mexican-Finnish designer and boat builder Pancho Nikander was born in Mexico in 1981, but now lives in Finland.
His most popular work is the versatile Kanto magazine/firewood rack designed for Artek in 2004.
