Thanks for posting the cool site.

I've often admired the "cleanliness" of Scandinavian design.

Alvar Aalto was a famous Finnish designer and architect, whose designs
are still sold worldwide. The current manufacturer is Finnish
furniture maker Artek. The newly made round Aalto coffee tables made
by Artek cost around $800 to $1200 when sold in the USA. The fact that
yours is made in Sweden indicates that it may be older production. Also
it seems that the design #73 is no longer in production, which may make
your table more valuable if you can find a collector who is
specializing in Scandinavian furniture design from mid 20th century.
You can learn more about the current Aalto-production in www.aalto.com
and www.artek.fi

Hope this information helps. :-)
