Kaari Wall Shelf Round
This whimsical round shelf can serve as bedside table, a dropping-off spot in an entrance area, or a platform to highlight a precious object. The shelf comprises a round panel, a vertical wall bracket, and the distinctive steel band common to the Kaari collection. The panel has a linoleum finish, while the wall bracket is made of oak. Offering diagonal support, the steel band, juxtaposed with the vertical and horizontal elements, creates a fluid, linear silhouette that enhances the curves of the round panel.

Artek
Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by Alvar Aalto, Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl, to sell furniture and to promote a modern culture of living.
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Brothers from Brittany who have worked together in Paris since the late 1990s. Kaari (2015) was their first collection for Artek. It pairs oak with a thin curved steel brace, a reference to Aalto's bent birch.
