Eero Saarinen vowed to address the ugly, confusing, unrestful world he observed underneath chairs and tables -- the so-called "slum of legs." A five-year design investigation led him to the revolutionary Pedestal Collection, including the Tulip Stool, introduced in 1958.

The Saarinen stool has an upholstered cushion on a swivel base. A nameplate with the KnollStudio logo and the signature of Eero Saarinen is located on the underside of the base.

FINISHES
