An true classic of the mid-century furniture, Eero Saarinen’s Tulip collection of tables and chairs remains popular amongst design aficionados some around the world. Combining a metal base with a laminate tabletop, the Tulip side table is a versatile, hard-wearing piece of sculptural design.
This particular rendition of the table is available in a pair of sizes and a number of finishes. You can learn more about history of the collection and its designer on the Nest journal.
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.
