Considered among the most important design icons of the 20th century, the Tulip chairs represent a revolution in the concept of modern furniture, thanks to their unmistakable single-stem base that transformed a seat into an authentic functional sculpture. In this version, they are offered with cushions upholstered in red fabric, in refined contrast with the white shell.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned in 1957 as part of the famous \u003cstrong\u003ePedestal Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Tulip was born from Eero Saarinen's desire to eliminate what he called the \u003cem\u003e\"ugly, confusing, unrestful world\"\u003c\/em\u003e created by the legs of traditional tables and chairs. The result is a chair with fluid and continuous forms, composed of an ergonomic shell with armrests that develops harmoniously over a single central aluminum casting stem. The swivel base increases the functionality of the design, while the essential lines give the armchair a timeless elegance, still perfectly current today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set is in excellent overall condition, following careful professional restoration. The shells and swivel bases have been restored and repainted, appearing perfectly solid with a smooth and precise rotation mechanism. The cushions have been completely reupholstered in red fabric and are in like-new condition. The authenticity of the armchairs is attributable to the constructive details typical of early Knoll productions, including the particular conformation of the base and the characteristic rotation system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knoll","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56059560198529,"sku":"1420","price":1900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/7631\/8849\/files\/DSCF9010_9bc90a72-2611-4f63-be93-602e9992a7ed.jpg?v=1786096656","url":"https:\/\/www.orvett.com\/en\/products\/set-di-2-poltroncine-tulip-girevoli-con-braccioli-design-eero-saarinen-per-knoll-international","provider":"Orvett","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
