Artek 403 Hallway Chair by Alvar Aalto

Artek 403 Hallway Chair by Alvar Aalto

The Artek 403 hallway chair is a classic Alvar Aalto design and a beautiful example of Finnish modernist furniture. With its solid birch frame, open armrests and curved plywood seat and backrest, the chair has a light but architectural expression that feels both practical and elegant.

Originally designed as a hallway chair, the Artek 403 works well in an entryway, bedroom, living room or as an occasional lounge chair. Its lower seating position and gently curved form give it a relaxed presence, while the clean lines make it easy to combine with both vintage and contemporary interiors.

A versatile vintage Artek chair for anyone looking for Finnish design, Alvar Aalto furniture or a lighter lounge-style chair with a calm and functional silhouette.
