Knoll Saarinen Executive Arm Chairs in Schumacher Fabric, Leather, & Walnut
-
Description
Eero Saarinen is widely regarded as one of the most influential furniture designers of the 20th century, celebrated for his innovative use of materials and sculptural approach to form. His iconic designs for Knoll, such as the Tulip Chair, Womb Chair, and the Executive Chair, embody a philosophy of timeless elegance and functional simplicity. At Object Refinery, we have developed an intimate understanding of Saarinen’s work through years of meticulous restorations for discerning clients.
These Saarinen Executive Arm Chairs features handsome walnut legs and has been newly restored in Schumacher’s Elkhart, a refined, soft-woven small check in a rich brown and ivory palette. To complement the fabric, each chair is piped in a supple Italian leather in saddle brown. The interplay of texture and tone, woven fabric, smooth leather, and warm walnut, elevates the design while honoring Saarinen’s original vision.
These chairs are restored to order, and we currently have the capacity to produce a set of six in the fabric and wood combination shown. Custom upholstery and possible additional quantities are available upon request, please don’t hesitate to inquire. -
