An original early-edition “Tulip” dining table designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll International and produced in Italy during the 1960s. Conceived to eliminate what Saarinen defined as the “slum of legs,” the Pedestal Collection embodies his pursuit of sculptural purity and modern elegance. This example features a Carrara marble top of 120 cm in diameter, magnificently preserved with no chips or structural flaws, and enriched by an extraordinary natural patina developed over time. The marble rests on the iconic cast-aluminum pedestal base, finished in white, showing only light age-related marks on the foot, visible in the photographs. with its architectural rigor balanced by organic curves, this table is not only a functional dining piece but a true design icon—an emblematic statement of mid-century Italian modernism, versatile enough to enrich both contemporary and classic interiors. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
