Alvar Aalto 406 Lounge Chairs with Rattan for Artek

Designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek, the 406 lounge chair is one of the most recognizable Finnish modernist armchair designs. Its bent birch frame gives the chair a light and flexible structure, while the woven rattan seat and backrest add warmth, texture and a more natural feel.

This pair has the classic low lounge profile and open construction that make the 406 chair work especially well in living rooms, reading corners, bedrooms and calm interior settings. The combination of birch and rattan gives the chairs a soft Scandinavian look while still keeping the design very clear and architectural.
