HISTORY
This chair and stool are part of a collection of furniture designed for the Municipal Library of Viipuri (now in Russia). The collection is characterized by a bentwood leg for which Aalto is justly famous. The leg id formed of a solid piece of wood into which cuts have been made at one end and thin glue covered wood strips inserted. The resulting laminated end is bent at a sharp angle. This was Aalto's brilliantly simple solution to the problem of attaching a vertical leg to a horizontal plane.
