Alvar Aalto Drop-Leaf Dining Table 1940s–50s

An original drop-leaf dining table designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek, produced in Finland in the 1940s–50s. Crafted from solid birch with Aalto’s signature L-leg construction, this piece showcases a warm honey-toned patina developed over decades of use.

The clever drop-leaf design allows the table to adapt seamlessly to different spaces—compact when folded, spacious when extended. A timeless example of Aalto’s functional, human-centered approach to design. Measurements: Length 120 cm; Depth 75 cm; Height 70 cm.

The table provides a practical surface while keeping its materials, proportions and construction clearly expressed.

Good vintage condition with a beautiful, even patina and light wear consistent with age. Structurally solid. Please review all images for details.
