Known for its minimalist and distinctive form, it is one of the most recognizable pieces of 20th-century design, designed in 1956 as part of a research to create a timeless design that would defy the fleeting trends of the era. Eero Saarinen designed the famous table in 1956 within his 'Pedestal Collection' series with the primary objective of creating a piece of furniture that was extremely functional and versatile, yet elegant and free of superfluous components. It is characterized by a top that seems to float in balance on a slim pedestal base shaped like a tulip, hence the name Tulip, designed to eliminate the 'problem' of table legs and to offer a sense of lightness and visual continuity. One of the distinctive features of the Saarinen is its ability to adapt to a variety of environments thanks to its timeless design and elegant versatility. This table is particularly suitable for modern and minimalist spaces, but it can be used in a wide range of contexts, from residential spaces to commercial or even institutional ones. Over the years the Tulip products, or Saarinen as you prefer to call them, have evolved into a collection that also includes chairs, armchairs and coffee tables, all united by the same idea of visual and functional freedom. For shipping, the table will be packed and placed on a custom-made wooden crate. P.S. I do not ship to the United States due to logistics and bureaucracy
