About the Item
A lovely art deco side table by Maija Heikinheimo produced by Asko in the 1930s. In the original drawings the table is called "Apu", a Finish word meaning help. The model no. is 604. The table is light and can be easily moved around. It has a middle shelf in addition to the bottom level that can also be used to keep items on. A brilliant simple design. This particular piece is in dark stained birch and is stamped Asko to the bottom.
Maija Heikinheimo (1908-1963) was an interior architect that started her career at Asko in 1932-1935. Later she joined the Artek team, and was Alvar Aalto´s right hand, especially after Aino Aalto´s sudden death due to illness. Maija was the general manager for Artek from 1945-1955.
Maija designed furnitures, light fixtures and some dishes and smaller objects as well. Maija was awarded the Pro-Finlandia medal in 1959.
Maija was a very talented designer, and yet she prefered to stay in the background. She stayed at Artek for the rest of her working career until she suddenly fell ill and passed away at the young age of 55 in 1963.
Maija made a point of dedicating all drawings at the Artek offices to Alvar Aalto, although a lot of them were done by her or other talented architects or designers. She simply erassed the other names and replaced them with Alvar´s name. She was meticulous about this issue.
