A Sculptural Seat with Space Beneath

The Knoll Saarinen Tulip Dining Armchair replaces the familiar four-legged frame with a single pedestal, bringing a calmer rhythm to a dining setting. Its curved shell flows into integrated arms, creating an enclosing seat without the visual interruption of separate supports.

A moulded fibreglass-reinforced shell sits on a cast aluminium base, with matching black or white finishes and a separate upholstered seat cushion. The contrast between the smooth shell and the softer cushion gives the chair its distinctive character, whether paired with a Saarinen table or used as an individual seat at a desk.

This version has an exposed shell and a cushioned seat, rather than a fully upholstered inner shell. Choose fabric or leather upholstery and a fixed or swivel base; the swivel option allows you to turn towards the table or away from it without moving the whole chair.

Specifications

  • Dimensions: W68 × D59 × H81cm (seat height 48cm).
  • Base: Cast aluminium with a Rilsan-coated finish in black or white; fixed or swivel options.
  • Shell: Moulded fibreglass-reinforced plastic in black or white, matched to the base.
  • Upholstery: Removable foam seat cushion with a zippered cover and hook-and-loop fastening, available in fabric or leather.
  • Authentication: The KnollStudio logo and Eero Saarinen’s signature are located on the underside of the base.

Part of the Knoll Saarinen Collection. Explore Knoll Dining Chairs and our wider Dining Chairs collection. Also available as the armless Tulip Dining Chair and the Tulip Dining Armchair with upholstered inner shell.

  • W68 × D59 × H81cm (seat height 48cm).
