Alvar Aalto E60S Birch Stool by Artek
Alvar Aalto E60S stool. Sticker denoting the stool was made in 2003.
Alvar Aalto, 1898 to 1976.
Aalto was Finnish and was both an architect but also designed furniture, textiles and glassware. His technical innovations led to a number of patents particularly for bentwood. Forerunner of MCM.
The E60 stool was designed using these techniques for durability without traditional joinery for connecting the legs to the seat. E60 began manufacture in 1933, and has been in continuous production since 1933. A model is in the permanent collection at MoMA.
