Aino and Alvar Aalto, Sunflower table with chairs, pair
Jalo-Set Ky
Finland, 1938-39
lacquered wood, brass, enameled aluminum, galvanized steel
28¾ h × 39¼ dia in (73 × 100 cm)
Condition: General wear exists throughout both the pair of chairs and the table. There are scattered abrasions, scuffing, soiling, and finish loss within the set. Outside edges of each chair have rounding to their corners, and one example has a moderate gouge on its left side on the backrest. The same chair has a couple vertical cracks to its back right leg and the table has two cracked petals near their bases, or by the center of the table. Overall this set is in good condition and would benefit from restoration to highlighted areas.
