HOT ! Eero Saarinen Tulip Table - Round Dining 50 Inch

Created in 1957, this magnificent Saarinen Tulip Table embodies the thought and theory behind one of the 20th century\'s great industrial designers. The Saarinen Table has become one of the most recognizable pieces of furniture from the modern classic era. Constructed of cast aluminum, the Saarinen table flows from top to bottom and from side to side in a fluid exchange of lines. Saarinen employed a range of bases and tops for various interiors throughout his career. The Saarinen table shown here is a favorite as it can be used in a variety of spaces, but is most commonly used as a dining table. 

Eero Saarinen’s design of the General Motors Technical Center in 1948 showcased his own style, as well as the influence of Mies van der Rohe.  The extensive use of glass and steel was still highly modern to architecture.  Saarinen was responsible not only for the architecture but also for the interiors.  Giving this master the ability to coordinate the lighting, furniture, urban design, and architecture allowed for a harmonious design that is now considered a masterpiece of modernism, similar to the Tulip Table.
