Eero Saarinen
(Finnish, 1910–1961)

The Tulip table by Eero Saarinen is one if the most well-known pieces of Finnish design. With a name inspired by the table's one-legged structure that resembles a flower and completed with a round, laminated table top, Tulip is not only a dining table but also an eye-catching design icon.

Saarinen designed the Tulip table in 1957 for the American furniture manufacturer Knoll. The table is part of Saarinen's Pedestal collection that consists of single-legged furniture created as a protest to the "ugly, confusing, unrestful world" of traditional furniture legs.

The iconic collection exudes an air of mid-century modernism that, to this day, feels fresh and original.

There are some small flaws and scratches which are to be expected with this particular table. The same table with similar issues sell for over £3000. The table comes in 2 pieces and is easily transported.

I can usually deliver within 24 hours to an address in mainland UK for an additional charge (free of charge if the full asking price is paid) otherwise collection and viewing is NE8. Item must be paid in full before delivery commences.
