The iconic Tulip dining table, designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll Studio, is a masterpiece of mid-century modern design. This specific example combines the flowing lines of the famous pedestal architecture with a refined marble top, resulting in a timeless and elegant silhouette.
The round tabletop is crafted from high-quality marble featuring distinctive, natural veining in shades of grey on a white background. The sculptural, white trumpet base is made of cast aluminium with a durable coating, ensuring stability and the characteristic seamless transition from floor to tabletop. The design, originally from 1957, features the official Knoll Studio signature plate, confirming its authenticity.
The table is in excellent condition and shows careful handling over the years. The marble surface has retained its original luster and the base shows no significant defects. The construction is fully intact and functional.
This dining table forms a natural centerpiece in both classic and contemporary interiors. The design combines effortlessly with various chair styles, from minimalist wire chairs to upholstered armchairs, and provides a sophisticated foundation for any dining area.
