With a tabletop carved from solid marble and a base in aluminium, the Saarinen Tulip Cafe Table is one of the most recognisable designs of all time. First produced in 1957, Saarinen’s table is a favourite of interiors connoisseurs around the world and is made from long-lasting, hard-wearing materials envisioned to last a lifetime.
This particular size is well-suited not only for use as a dining space but also as a cafe-style table. Available in a wide range of lavish marble finishes, and featuring a base in a choice of black or white, the Tulip Cafe Table will sit well for generations in a multitude of spaces.
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.
