This piece is an early original example of Alvar Aalto’s Trolley, Model 901.
Originally designed as a tea trolley with wheels for mobility, its functional form reflects Aalto’s human-centered approach to everyday objects. Due to the rarity of this early production model, it has in recent years been used not for movement, but primarily as a side table within a living space.
An impressed mark can be found on the underside of the frame, believed to relate to early production batches or component identification during assembly. Across architecture, furniture, and daily objects, Aalto pursued a consistent design philosophy in which function, form, and a deep sensitivity to the human body and lived environment quietly converge.
This work is part of the ATELIERMO collection and is not for sale. We invite visitors to experience it within the space, where the true scale, presence, and level of refinement unique to an original Aalto piece can be fully appreciated.
