Seller's Notes:Beautiful, authentic Knoll Tulip chair set designed by Eero Saarinen. This is the classic, highly sought-after configuration: four armless side chairs and two armchairs, all with premium black Volo leather cushions. Purchased by me from Design Within Reach (DWR) in 2023. • Genuine Knoll production (stamped bases) • Original black Volo leather cushions (excellent condition) • Purchased directly from Design Within Reach • Clean, timeless white bases with minimal wear • Structurally perfect — no wobble, solid and substantial These retail for significantly more new and are increasingly hard to find as a complete, matching set in this condition and upholstery. Perfect for a Saarinen dining table or as a standalone statement set. Serious inquiries only. Comparable sets trade well above entry-level pricing.

Architect Eero Saarinen was a genius at creating expressive sculptural forms. From his TWA Terminal (now the TWA Hotel) at New York’s JFK Airport to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, there’s a magic in everything he created. The Saarinen Tulip Armchair (1956) began with his observation that “the underside of typical tables and chairs makes a confusing, unrestful world.” Featuring a swivel seat, this chair stands on a gracefully shaped cast-aluminum base inspired by a drop of high-viscosity liquid. Made in Italy.
