Kaari wall shelf REB 007, grey - black - oak

Artek’s Kaari REB 007 shelf features a grey linoleum panel with a black ABS edge. Its diameter is 35 cm and thickness 2,4 cm. The wall bracket is made of black powder coated steel and solid natural oak with a protective varnish.

The elegant Kaari collection was designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec and launched at Stockholm Furniture Fair in 2015. As Alvar Aalto’s furniture was characterized by the L-leg, the Bouroullecs’ Kaari tables feature a unique leg system composed of vertical wood and bent steel. It became obvious during the design process that the legs could also be used to support wall-mounted objects such as shelves and consoles. The series has an attractive silhouette, created by the wing-shaped steel structure. Kaari combines the traditional materials of Artek in a new and fresh way. Invest in a future classic and preserve it for generations to come.

Artek was founded in 1935 by four young idealists – Alvar and Aino Aalto, Nils-Gustav Hahl and Maire Gullichsen published a design manifesto inspired by functionalism, stating that Artek’s aim was “to sell furniture and to promote modern culture of habitation by exhibitions and other means”. Since its foundation, Artek has played in the intersection of design, architecture, and art, making Finnish design and Alvar Aalto's furniture known all over the world.
