In 1957 Eero Saarinen set out to eliminate the ‘slum of legs’ found beneath many other chairs and tables. The simple, sweeping, structural curves and machine-like form of the table have made it into one of the most popular and enduring designs of all-time. This particular iteration has a top panel produced from laminate in a choice of white and black finishes, and is available in a selection of four diameters.
We carry an extensive range of tables and chairs from the Tulip family, while you can learn more about the famed designer of the beloved range on our Journal. A perennial icon, the Tulip table is a generation straddling investment that will heighten or elevate any setting.
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.
