Alvar Aalto created the trolley for the 1937 Paris International Exhibition. The 900 trolley consists of a curved birch frame, large veneer wheels, a handmade rattan basket, and a ceramic surface on the top. Aalto designed the 900 trolley for domestic use, and we also find this trolley in the living room of Villa Mairea, one of the villas designed by Alvar Aalto, located in Finland.
