Alvar Aalto Chair 45 with Rattan for Artek

The combination of birch and rattan gives the chairs a warm and relaxed look. They work well around a dining table, as desk chairs, or as individual accent chairs in a living room, hallway or bedroom. The open rattan construction keeps the overall look airy, while the armrests and slightly reclined back make the chair comfortable for everyday use. This pair has a clean and natural appearance, with a beautiful tone in both the wood and rattan.

The chairs are easy to place in both modern and vintage interiors, and they bring a soft Scandinavian feeling without looking too decorative or heavy.

The chair’s scale and clear profile allow it to work naturally as an individual seating piece in both contemporary and vintage interiors.

These chairs are in good vintage condition with light patina consistent with age and use. The birch frames show minor age-related wear. The rattan has some small breaks, visible in the photos, but the overall appearance remains good and authentic. The chairs are solid, usable and present well as original vintage Artek pieces.
