Description: For Sale is a restored Knoll tulip dining set designed by Eero Saarinen dating back to 1961-1968 when Knoll was at 320 Park ave and went by Knoll Associates. - 6 Authentic Knoll Eero Saarinen swivel side chairs. Each chair has had the fiberglass refinished and the bases have been powder coated by Bonehead Performance (Bonehead Performance does custom work for Knoll out of the East Greenville, Pa plant). The swivel mechanisms have been restored to work perfectly- broken parts have been replaced. The cushions are brand new and made from Knoll Textiles Pristini fabric- designed by Toni Pristini in 1947. The color picked is 466953-001 Beige/white (51% Post-Consumer recycled Polyester, 49% Polyester - 100,000 double rubs Wyzenbeek) the cushions have been handcrafted by Jen Tiberi (jentiberi.com). We used an original cushion as the pattern to preserve authenticity. We will also provide the original red/orange in the sale along with the leftover Knoll Textile fabric. 5 of the chairs are from 1961-1968 and the other is from the late 50s, as it has the original swivel mechanism (which is the only difference between the other 5 and not visible). All 6 of the chairs have the original BR 51 marking on the bottom of the bases.

Unlike the original table top which had a 60" white oak veneer, this is a solid 1 inch thick white oak top hand built to the original specifications. The white oak wood is from a tree lost in a storm in central Pennsylvania in 2005 and has been naturally drying for the past 19 years to ensure the moisture content is almost nonexistent giving this table top the possibility to last several lifetimes. This tabletop is absolutely beautiful. table dimensions-height: 28.25 inchDiameter: 60 inchWeight: ~ 165 lbs This set is stunning and looks amazing but still has some patina- meaning we left the character that shows its age and is not a brand new set as you can see if some of the photos. We also refinished all the whites in a warm vintage white like the original color not the current cool/blueish white that is offered now. Please reach out for a shipping quote or if you would like to see anymore photos. This set is also not being used, it is protected and in storage.
