Product Description
Artek's Stool 60 is one of the most iconic pieces of Scandinavian design from the 20th century. Occupying a permanent position in design museums across the world it's revered for its inherent flexibility (at once a seat, table, storage unit, you name it) and curved L-legs. To create the L-leg, cuts are made at the end of a piece of wood, with the slits extending just below the level of the planned bend. Wood veneer strips are then inserted and glued. This simplifies the bending process and increases the stability of the component. Aalto called the L-leg “the little sister of the architectural column,” and its arrival announced a break with longstanding traditions of furniture production. Over the years, Artek has released several special editions which means that the stool can now be stacked into a colourful tower of iconic design.
