Saarinen Tulip Table | Round Table | Carrara marble-satin finish

The Tulip Table is part of the Pedestal collection designed by the internationally renowned architect Eero Saarinen. A revolutionary table in form and materials, today an icon of modern design. Its shape resembles the stem of a tulip, which opens in the final part to support the corolla, in this case the top. Innovative not only in the shape with pure and essential lines, but also in the materials. The circular base was in fact made of die-cast aluminum as, with the technologies of the time, the plastic was not strong enough to withstand the weight. The central foot is made of a single block of aluminum painted white, without joints, and supports a round  top  in carrara marble.  The elegant table fits into very different furnishing contexts, even in traditional home interiors.
