ALVAR AALTO FURNITURE

Juhani Pallasmaa (Editor)

Museum of Finnish Architecture, Helsinki, 1984

Softcover in pictorial wraps

First softcover edition

Size approx 24 x 21cm

179 pages, profusely illustrated.

Text in English.

This is a lovely publication with diagrams and photographic illustrations throughout, several in colour, interspersed with with transparent tissue paper pages of facsimilies of Aalto's original pencil sketches and transcripts of Aalto's own notebooks on coloured paper pages.

Condition: Very good. Covers are very good showing a tiny amount of marking and handling wear along the edges. There is creasing to an inner flap. Internally the book is very bright and clean with no inscriptions.

Authoritative and profusely illustrated, this is a must for twentieth century design dealers and Aalto chair collectors alike. It's a hard to find title, especially in English.

Payment and Postage

Paypal is accepted and I do not add a surcharge to cover their fees. UK buyers only may also pay by cheque or postal order. If it's a cheque, please allow 7 to 10 days for it to clear. In exceptional circumstances it may be possible for overseas customers to pay by another means, such as bank transfer, by prior arrangement.

All buyers please make contact within 3 days of auction. Payment is required within 7 days. If you can't see the postage price for your country please wait for me to send you a Paypal invoice.

Shipping prices are calculated at cost and include tracking and full insurance. In order to comply with eBay's buyer and seller protection programmes, tracking and full insurance are mandatory for items of value.

Non-payment

All non-paying bidders are, without exception, reported to eBay. This is not done out of anger, or for the sake of being vindictive, but because eBay charges retrospective fees calculated on the actual sale price of items and this money needs to be retrieved. Believe me it is hard enough to make ends meet on here as it is! Thank you for your understanding. Please refer to eBay's policy on non-payment for more information, including its ramifications for the bidder. If you have any doubts, please do ask before bidding.

Condition of items

Please note that, unless clearly stated otherwise, my listings are for vintage/antique objects and therefore, by definition, are not going to be in the same condition you would expect from a brand new item. Please be assured that I always endeavour to offer the most accurate description possible of the item's condition and take multiple illustrative photographs.

Vintage electrical items

Unless clearly stated otherwise in the description, vintage electrical items are sold in their original condition so should always be safety checked by a qualified electrician before use.

Returns

Returns are possible, if reported within 7 days and by prior arrangement, if a mistake has been made in the listing and the item is not as described, but for no other reason. Unfortunately simple buyer's remorse cannot qualify and the cost of return postage is not included in any refund.

Please don't hesitate to e-mail me to ask any questions not covered above; I always endeavour to answer as promptly as possible.

Thanks very much for taking the time to read this and best of luck bidding!
