Description

The iconic Tulip table, designed in 1960 by Eero Saarinen for Knoll, remains one of the most celebrated examples of mid-century design. This table features a striking Arabescato marble round top, showcasing its timeless natural veining, resting on Saarinen’s signature pedestal base in white-coated metal.

Eero Saarinen, the renowned Finnish-American architect and designer, wanted to reinvent furniture by eliminating the visual clutter of traditional table legs. His radical solution was the Tulip series: a flowing, sculptural design supported by a single, elegant base.

Knoll, the celebrated American furniture manufacturer, is known for bringing together the work of groundbreaking designers such as Saarinen, Florence Knoll, Mies van der Rohe, and Harry Bertoia. Their commitment to craftsmanship and innovation is reflected in furniture produced with meticulous attention to material quality and structural integrity.

The marble table top is in excellent condition. The base shows minor signs of use, which adds character and authenticity to this pre-loved piece.
