Outstanding Knoll Saarinen Dining Set - SOLD

October 14, 2016

One of the most iconic designs in American furniture, designed by Eero Saarinen and produced by Knoll. In a 1956 Time magazine cover story, Eero Saarinen said that “the underside of typical tables and chairs makes a confusing, unrestful world” and he was designing a new collection to “clear up the slum of legs in the U.S. home.” Later that year, he completed his Pedestal Table, whose form was inspired by a drop of high-viscosity liquid.

This set, tulip table and six swivel chairs, was produced post 1969 (when Knoll became "Knoll International") and is in very good vintage condition with age-appropriate signs of use. Overall it presents very well: bright and glossy and clean. The white laminate tabletop is very clean with a very tiny chip on the surface (see photos) and minor dings/cracking along the edge. The table base is glossy with very light scratches and a couple of tiny worn areas along bottom edge. The chairs have small nicks/scratches/flaws as shown, but overall present very well! The original grey cushions are comfortable and have been professionally cleaned. Some light staining remains visible.

Table: 47.375" diameter x 28.675" high
Chairs:
 32"H x 20"W x 20.5"D x Seat H: 18.75"
