Artek Armchair 406 Lounge Chair
Manufacturer: Artek | Designer: Alvar Aalto, 1939
Armchair 406 is Aalto's cantilevered lounge chair — a form-bent birch lamella frame that flexes gently under the body, with a seat and back of interwoven linen webbing. The cantilever gives the chair a degree of spring that a four-legged frame cannot offer, and the linen webbing is both breathable and replaceable. The armrests are formed from a single piece of birch that is split in half before assembly, ensuring that as the wood moves over time, the chair remains perfectly balanced. Available in a range of webbing colours against a natural lacquered birch frame.
- Dimensions: Width: 60 cm × Depth: 72 cm × Height: 87 cm | Seat height: 41 cm
- Frame: Form-bent solid birch lamella
- Seat and back: Linen webbing
