Description
This stunning 42-inch Round Saarinen Dining Table boasts a white base and a beautiful brown emperador marble top, presenting itself in excellent condition with minimal signs of wear.
Architect Eero Saarinen’s ingenious design for the table was inspired by his observation that traditional table bases created an unsettling visual clutter. His solution, a pedestal base resembling a drop of high-viscosity liquid, not only offers a striking aesthetic but also maximizes legroom for diners.
Saarinen’s legacy extends beyond this iconic dining table, encompassing architectural marvels like the TWA Terminal at JFK Airport and the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. The Saarinen Dining Table, crafted by Knoll, stands as a testament to his genius, aiming to declutter American homes by replacing conventional table legs with a gracefully shaped cast-aluminum base.
