Product details
The Tulip Chair by Eero Saarinen , designed in 1956, is more than just a chair—it's a milestone in design history. Its clean, organic form reduces it to the essentials: a flowing transition between seat and base, without any obtrusive legs—which Saarinen called "design chaos under the table."
Crafted from a sturdy aluminum base with a Rilsan coating and a molded fiberglass seat shell , the Tulip chair offers not only aesthetic appeal but also comfort and stability . The integrated swivel function ensures flexibility in use – whether at the dining table, in the office, or in the waiting area.
This chair comes from an original Knoll International collection and is a vintage model with distinctive signs of wear that underscore its authenticity. A collector's item for connoisseurs—or a stylish everyday companion with design aspirations.
