Famously known as the ‘cocktail cabinet’, Cabinet 250 has been out of standard production for decades and its long-awaited comeback honours Alvar and Aino Aalto, co-founders of Artek and pivotal figures in mid-twentieth-century design. This classic piece is a testament to Aino’s belief that every object and function can embody both style and substance.
Beautifully crafted from honey-stained birch, the cabinet radiates a natural warmth and depth, while its pared-back form embraces clarity and thoughtful balance. It combines a compact silhouette with a surprisingly roomy interior, making it perfect for storing everyday essentials - everything from refreshments and glassware to bedding and apparel.
As one of the great architects and furniture designers of the 20th century, Finnish designer Alvar Aalto breathed life and warmth into modernism, placing emphasis on "organic" geometry; supple, natural materials; and a respect for human feeling.
Alvar Aalto's collection of mid-century furniture and lighting is produced exclusively by Scandinavian brand Artek including the iconic Artek 60 Stool.
