Artek 900 Tea Trolley
Manufacturer: Artek | Designer: Alvar Aalto, 1937
Tea Trolley 900 is one of the most characterful pieces in the Artek collection. Designed by Alvar Aalto and first shown at the Paris World Exhibition in 1937, it draws on two unlikely influences: British tea culture, which the Aaltos encountered on their travels, and Japanese craft traditions they deeply admired. The result is a piece that is both functional and quietly expressive — a form-bent birch frame on MDF wheels, a woven rattan lower basket, and a ceramic tile top surface that gives it a warmth and texture no other trolley quite matches. Available with white or black ceramic tiles.
At home beside a sofa, in a kitchen, or as a drinks trolley — it has been doing all of these things since 1937.
