Eero Saarinen remains one of the most influential furniture designers of the 20th century, celebrated for his sculptural approach to form and his pioneering use of materials. His iconic creations for Knoll — including the Tulip Chair, Womb Chair, and Executive Chair — embody a philosophy of timeless elegance and functional simplicity. Our team has developed a deep appreciation for Saarinen’s vision through years of meticulous restorations for discerning clients.

This early pair of Saarinen Executive Arm Chairs features beautifully restored walnut legs, their warm tone perfectly complemented by a luxurious silk mohair in Moss from the renowned Rogers & Goffigon fabric house. The decision to omit piping enhances the clean lines and modern sensibility of the design, allowing the refined materials and sculptural form to take center stage. Available now for immediate delivery, this exquisite pair is ideal as statement pieces at the heads of a dining table, as guest chairs in a living room, or as elegant accents in any sophisticated space.

This one-off pair as shown in mohair represent just one of many possibilities for our Saarinen Executive Chairs. Typically, we restore each chair to-order in our workshop and they can be fully customized in any model of the design, including Arm, Armless, Metal Leg, Wood Leg, or Swivel Base.
