Questions About Saarinen Table Small
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    To 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 ExpertApril 5, 2022
    An 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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    Whether 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 ExpertApril 22, 2024

  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021

  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    The best shape table for a small space is a square shaped table. Because they can have multiple functions and easily push into the corner of the room, they are said to better as they'll take up less space in a dining room or kitchen. Find a range of tables today on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    Whether a round dining table is better in a small space is largely a matter of personal preference. Working with a tighter space may mean that a round or oval dining room table, a design that references the festive meals of the medieval era, may be a better fit. Round dining room tables, particularly those that originated in the Art Deco period, still endure as a popular contemporary substitute for traditional rectangular dining tables. Both round and oval tables take up less space than rectangular and square tables of similar size because they lack corners. Find a variety of round tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    The best shape for a table in a small dining room can be a round table. A round table works well in small rooms and smaller square-shaped rooms. It creates a cozy setting, so it is the best shape for a small group of people. Visually, it seems to occupy less space than a rectangle because of the rounded corners, and this also means that it has less surface area. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage round dining tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    Whether a coffee table makes a small living room look smaller or larger depends on the design. Tables with glass or open, airy designs can create the illusion of a larger space. Round and oval tables can also increase the feeling of openness in a room. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of coffee tables.
