Saarinen Round Dining Table

Eero Saarinen for Knoll - 1957

Eero Saarinen wanted to design a collection to “clear up the slum of legs in the U.S. home” and the result, after five years of design research, was his Tulip Chair and Pedestal Table collection for Knoll. Creating a cast aluminum base inspired by a drop of high-viscosity liquid he banished the “slum” in a single stroke. Often copied, these are the authentic tables, each with a Knoll logo stamped into the base and an Eero Saarinen signature nameplate under the top. Saarinen round dining tables are available in a range of sizes and a range of finishes.
