Saarinen Table Chairs For Sale on 1stDibs
How Much are Saarinen Table Chairs?
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023To authenticate a Saarinen table, first check the materials. Typically, authentic tables will have a cast aluminum base rather than wood or plastic. Tabletop materials vary and can include wood veneer, laminate and natural marble, but you usually won't find plastic tabletops on real pieces. Examine the edge of the tabletop as well. Reproductions will often display flat edges, while genuine tables will have a gently tapered tabletop. If you're uncertain as to the authenticity of a particular table, consult a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. Through his work as an architect and designer, Eero Saarinen was a prime mover in the introduction of modernism into the American mainstream. Legendary furnishings designed by Saarinen like his durable side tables, the Womb chair, the Tulip chair and the Pedestal table are still frequently used in interiors today. On 1stDibs, find a collection of authentic Eero Saarinen tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024To identify a Saarinen Tulip chair, turn it over and examine its round base. Authentic Tulip chairs will display the Knoll logo and Eero Saarinen's signature. Knock-offs will typically be unmarked or show off a different maker's name. When in doubt, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer for assistance with identification. Explore a diverse assortment of Eero Saarinen Tulip chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022An Eero Saarinen table is 28.25” high. It comes in a variety of widths, with a 42” round table seating 4 to 5 people. You can shop a selection of Eero Saarinen designs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- Can a Saarinen table go outside?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Whether a Saarinen table can go outside depends on the piece. Through his work as an architect and designer, Eero Saarinen was a prime mover in the introduction of modernism into the American mainstream. Legendary furnishings designed by Saarinen like his durable side tables, the Womb chair, the Tulip chair and the Pedestal table are still frequently used in interiors today — and often copied at more affordable prices. At Cranbrook Academy of Art, Saarinen met Florence Schust Knoll, who, as director of her husband Hans Knoll's eponymous furniture company, would put Saarinen’s best designs into production. While Knoll offers outdoor versions of authentic Eero Saarinen tables with Vetro Bianco and Natural Black Slate tops, if a table wasn’t designed specifically for outdoor use, it’s best to only display it indoors. On 1stDibs, find a variety of vintage Eero Saarinen tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024The history of Eero Saarinen's Womb Chair dates back to the late 1940s. It was then that designer and entrepreneur Florence Knoll challenged her friend, Eero Saarinen, to create the most comfortable chair ever made. To succeed at the task, Saarinen sought to evoke what he imagined was the comfortable, secure feeling of being in the womb and set out to design the now iconic chair. Production of the Womb chair began in 1948, and it didn't take long for the seat to become a cultural phenomenon. In the decade following its release, it appeared in a Coca-Cola commercial, a New Yorker magazine cartoon and a Norman Rockwell painting on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post. Today, Knoll offers the seat in 15 upholstery options, and when Saarinen's famous TWA terminal reopened as a hotel in 2019, Womb chairs were featured prominently in the guest rooms. Explore a collection of Eero Saarinen Womb chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Whether you can replace Eero Saarinen chair legs depends on the chair. You can most easily swap out the legs on pieces that feature wooden dowels like the Lilac Organic. You will likely find it more difficult to replace legs on chairs that include metal bases like the Executive arm chair or pedestals like the Tulip. You'll find a collection of Eero Saarinen chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Eero Saarinen’s famed pedestal chairs, although streamlined in appearance, are crafted with a variety of materials from aluminum and molded fiberglass to the plastic-bonded finish. You can shop a selection of Eero Saarinen pieces from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024How far a table should be from a chair is 10 to 12 inches. Keep in mind that the distance is from the tabletop to the seat of the chair. To determine what chairs to buy, subtract 10 or 12 inches from the height of your table and look for pieces of that seat height. If you're looking for a table to go with certain chairs, measure the height from the floor to the seat and then add 10 or 12 inches to find out what table height to buy. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of dining tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Many chairs can work with a Tulip table. The Tulip armchair, for example, was part of Eero Saarinen’s Pedestal collection of armless chairs, stools, Tulip side tables and more. The series, produced for Knoll, was a mid-century modernist exercise in simplifying, and Tulip chairs, with their curvy contours, match Tulip side tables and Pedestal dining tables very well. However, you can also try other mid-century modern chairs to see what works best in your space. Shop a collection of mid-century modern dining chairs on 1stDibs.

Dining room chairs and dining tables do not necessarily have to match.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024Chairs for a 30-inch table should typically be between 18 and 20 inches tall when measured from the seat to the floor. Generally, the seat height of a chair should be 10 to 12 inches lower than the height of a tabletop. Tables measuring 30 inches in height are generally standard height and should work well with most standard dining chairs. Find a wide range of dining chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The end chairs are called an armchair. Typically found at the head of the table, these specific chairs have armrests and give off a more formal feel. You can shop a collection of armchairs and dining tables from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021The best toddler table and chair set is really a matter of preference. The good news is that a lot of furniture designers have made furnishings specifically for children over the years, so you should be able to find the seating and table you need. Shop antique and vintage children’s table and chair sets and other children’s furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021There are multiple chair colors that can be matched with a black table, it’s really a matter of preference. You could choose to go with black or a contrasting color or even think outside the box in order to add unlikely pops of color to a space. Visit 1stDibs for a wide selection of chairs and tables available in different colors.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, your dining room table and chairs do not need to match.

Shop a collection of dining room tables and chairs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022There is no one proper way to place chairs around a Noguchi coffee table. Your ideal placement will depend on the space you’re using and the chairs that you’ve chosen. In 1944, Noguchi created the first version of his classic glass-topped coffee table as a riff on a piece he designed for former MoMA president, A. Conger Goodyear, a few years earlier. Legendary Michigan manufacturer Herman Miller began to produce the design in 1948. On 1stDibs, find a number of Isamu Noguchi coffee tables from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024The size of a round table that can fit eight chairs is around 60 inches. That measurement corresponds to the diameter, meaning the distance across the top of the table through its center. To ensure comfort, choose a dining table that is 10 to 12 inches taller than the seat height of your dining chairs. Shop a wide range of round dining tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024How many chairs fit around a 60-inch round table depends largely on the size of the chairs. Most tables that are 60 inches in diameter can accommodate around 10 chairs comfortably. Ensure that there is enough space between the chairs so that users can pull them in and out easily and have enough elbow room to dine unencumbered. Shop a wide range of round tables on 1stDibs.
