Product description
A stunning example of Scandinavian modernism, this ‘Välipala’ bookcase, designed by Carl Gustaf Hiort for Mikko Nupponen in the 1950s, embodies both functionality and sculptural beauty. Crafted from rich teak and lacquered wood, the design showcases a striking interplay of materials and geometric balance. The floating shelves create an open, airy aesthetic, while the solid wood base grounds the piece with a sense of stability. The asymmetrical structure allows for dynamic storage and display, making it as artistic as it is practical. A rare and collectible statement piece, perfect for lovers of mid-century Finnish design. Collector’s item.
