Carrara Marble Conference Tables

Often considered by designers and collectors as the pièce de résistance of marble dining tables, this 2nd Generation early production year of 1969, Knoll International (signed and date stamped 1969) white marble 'Tulip' dining table is one of the most sought after designs and this particular one is an incredible collectors example. Designers who are looking for the best of the best with a discriminating collector client where only the best will do, look no further - this is the table for you. *Adding Time Life 'Lobby' chair by Charles Eames for Herman Miller to this listing. The price includes the table at $10,900 plus the Time Life chair discounted to $2,500 for a total of $13,400. Photo of the chair is in the last photo in this listing. One of the most highly coveted vintage-designer items at present, this elegant oval marble top pedestal dining table designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll International features a broad 78" x 48" oval top Carrara marble supported by a cast iron pedestal base. Signed and dated underneath with a Knoll International label with the early 320 Park Avenue New York location that was prior to their 1970 move to Fifth Avenue. Date stamped next to label underneath on the wooden separator - Oct 2 1969. Usually the date stamp is on the label but the stamper missed its mark by just a little bit and stamped next to the label. Saarinen's Tulip designs are one of the most knocked-off designs of the era - we believe it is important to make sure you are purchasing an authentic original so our advice is to be wary of buying an unmarked piece despite what the dealer or gallery may be telling you. These labels also serve as a method to determine when the item was made - so a Knoll Associates (1st Gen) or Knoll International (2nd Gen) label is of great importance as these are considered the "originals" - newer production Knoll items from Knoll Inc. and Knoll Studios lack the collectability and rarity of the earlier examples. In addition, the marble tabletop is original and not a newly fabricated replacement - as many other examples you will find are merely someone adding a new marble top to a vintage tulip base. These factors greatly affect the value, collectability and desirability of the piece. Examples from the 1970s and earlier are the most desirable, such as this one. Be the envy of your friends and acquaintances by introducing this early production original of a Mid-Century Modern design Classic into your living room, dining room, kitchen, sunroom or as an office desk. This big beauty would also be great in a hospitality or corporate location, such as a boutique hotel lobby, cocktail bar, members club, workspace studio, executive office or in a luxe clothing emporium. Can be used as a dining table, breakfast or cafe table, centre table or conference / meeting room table. Consider pairing with something unexpected like our library chairs from Pierre Jeanneret (contact us for details on this set) or go with the Classic choice and contact us for our selection of tulip dining side chairs and armchairs. We always carry a full selection of original and early production tulip side chairs, arm chairs, fully upholstered and seat pad options. Also great options to pair are Knoll Brno chairs, Milo Baughman dining chairs, and MR side chairs...

Often considered by designers and collectors as the pièce de résistance of marble dining tables, this 1st Generation, early production year (possibly 1st year of production), triple signed Knoll Associates white marble 'Tulip' dining table is the best example you can get of this particular design. Designers who are looking for the best of the best with a discriminating client where only the best will do, look no further - this is the table for you. One of the most highly coveted vintage-designer items at present, this elegant oval marble top dining table designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll Associates features a broad 78" x 48" oval top Carrara marble supported by a cast iron tulip base. Embossed underneath the hefty cast iron base are the early production model numbers indicating the base is a 1st generation base. And even better, this corresponds to the wood separator that connects to the base which is labelled with the early Knoll Associates "bow-tie" label which has the 575 Madison Avenue, New York address which was the Knoll Associates showroom address that was launched in 1951. While all of Knoll Associates years, prior to changing to Knoll International, are considered 1st Generation, the early years bowtie labels are of the first few years of this design before they changed to the later styled labels. Sitting on top is the large and beautifully veined white Carrara marble which has the red ink "Made in Italy" stamp which indicates that all 3 pieces of this table are fully matched, authentic, and original - and most important, are considered 1st Generation to the design and production years and specifically within the first few years from 1956, possibly a first year production itself. Designers and collectors: it doesn't get any better than this.
