One of the most iconic designs of the mid-century modern era, thanks to the simple, sweeping, structural curves and machine-like rationalism of the table, the Knoll Saarinen Side Table has been a mainstay of popular interior design for over half a century. An aluminium base carries a laminate tabletop, resulting in a sturdy unit that has a contradictory light and airy feel to it.
