An uncompromising classic of the mid-century modern movement, Saarinen’s Tulip collection remains a favourite of design enthusiasts seven decades on from its introduction. This particular variation is presented with a smooth laminate top in a choice of finishes, and sits atop an elegant metal base. Two sizes are available.

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.
