Description

Eero Saarinen's name is ubiquitous in the worlds of Design and Architecture. His extensive work in furniture remains are timeless as it was in the 1950's. His Executive Chair series is perhaps his most iconic design as it is still widely used to this day in homes and offices alike. Shown here we have a vintage Saarinen Executive Arm Chair Model 71S with a less often seen swivel base, newly upholstered in a rich cotton velvet in the color Navy.

This Saarinen Executive Arm Chair is equipped with tilt, swivel, and manual height adjustment. This chair's new upholstery is in excellent condition with its original base showing wear consistent with age and history.
