An icon of design culture for generations, the Saarinen Tulip Dining Table is a genuine phenomenon, and a perennial classic. Here rendered perfect for outdoor use, thanks to the employment of acrylic stone for the table top, the Tulip offers generous proportions for comfortable dining and is built to stand the test of time. Part of Knoll's extensive family of Saarinen objects, the Tulip table will elevate any outdoor space.
Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen (1910-1961) was incredibly influential in shaping the postwar American modern design movement. Born in Finland Eero Saarinen was the son of architect Eliel Saarinen, one of the founders of the Cranbrook Academy of Art.
Saarinen is best known for designing the Tulip dining table and tulip chairs as well as the Organic chair which he designed in collaboration with Charles Eames in 1940.
