Eero Saarinen Tulip Table - Round Dining 54 Inch

The Saarinen Tulip Table is the most famous piece in the Saarinen furniture collection. Designed in the mid-1950s, the Saarinen Table embodies the thought and theory behind one of the 20th century's great architects. Constructed of cast aluminum, the table flows from top to bottom and from side to side in a fluid exchange of lines. Eero Saarinen employed a range of bases and tops for various interiors throughout his career. The tulip 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 was influenced by both his father Eliel and his education and travels around the world.  In 1929, Saarinen studied sculpture in Paris.  In 1931, he studied architecture at Yale University.  Subsequently, he traveled through Europe, Mexico, and Egypt to see various significant architectural monuments.

Our Saarinen Tables are a masterful reproduction of the original Saarinen table. Absolute attention is paid to the workmanship of the stone and base, resulting in a modern classic that is meant to last for years. The Saarinen table base is available in matte white, glossy white, matte black, glossy black, and matte silver. The Saarinen Table top is available in a wide range of marbles and laminates, including the ever-popular white Carrara and black Marquina.
