alvar aalto armchair 400 | | Artek

Designed by Alvar Aalto, 1936
Made in Finland by Artek

Armchair 400, the "tank chair" is one of Aalto's classic pieces. Another sculptural chair which seems to test the limits of bent plywood manufacturing. The chair's framework consists of cantilevered laminated birch wood legs (which flex for your sitting comfort), between which rides the seat. An impressive design which offers exceptional comfort.

"Objects are made to be completed by the human mind." -Alvar Aalto

The framework is natural lacquered or black lacquered birch, seat with zig-zag springs, PU foam and polyester wadding. Armchair 400 is available upholstered in a variety of fabrics or leather.
