The Oval Tulip Dining Table’s Temeless Elegance
Design Inspired by the Tulip Table: Legacy

Designed with a distinctive single-pedestal form, Finnish-American architect and industrial designer Eero Saarinen produced the first Tulip Table in 1956. Designed on commission by Knoll, Saarinen’s work aimed to eradicate the “ugly, confusing, unrestful world” of conventional table legs.

Perfect for dining rooms, living areas, or offices, the oval form accentuates the table’s charm even more by providing a softer, more inviting look.
