Authentic Florence Knoll Rosewood Table 54"

Unavailable

Florence Knoll Round Table Desk W/ A Rosewood Top Measuring 54” W x 28” H.

Overall, this is in good vintage shape and it retains the knoll label. Additionally, this is a vintage piece from the 1960's so understand that there is age appropriate wear. However, there are no major scratches in the wood and the base is quite clean.

Local pick up or buyer is to arrange transportation via plycon or any other delivery service. Note the base alone weighs around 200+lbs.

Look very carefully at all the pictures before placing a bid.

Blessings

Saarinen Executive Armchair with Metal Legs


Designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll®


The design of Eero Saarinen's Executive Armchair (1950) began more than a decade earlier, when he and Charles Eames submitted several designs to the Organic Design in Home Furnishings competition at the MoMA. These fluid, sculptural shapes influenced the future work of both men; for Saarinen, most notably in his Womb, Tulip and Executive chairs. The Executive was originally made of fiberglass but was later updated in polyurethane. The molded shell flexes slightly with the sitter and the contoured plywood seat supported by metal or wood legs. Unlike Saarinen's furniture, which was consistently sculptural in form, these fluid lines didn't appear in his architecture until the 1950s.

Set of 6 Eames DCM (EC-127) chairs

Set of 6 Eames chairs. They are actually model EC-127, which are the upholstered versions of the DCM chairs. These were made in the 70s. They need some work and have some cosmetic issues that could use attention, which is why they're so cheap. They are nice and sturdy. The upholstery is brown Alexander Girard hopsack with off white piping. Note that there are 5 in the picture, but there is a 6th that is not pictured.

Shipping and the construction of boxes is always interesting. Especially when trying to fit a La Fonda chair in a make shift box. Oh wow, interesting!
