Chair with fabric seat pad - £253

Chair with leather seat pad - £283

With the mid point of the last century came huge advances in material technology and manufacturing processes, new plastics, resins and fibreglass could be mass produced quickly, efficiently and with consistent results. These developments provided exciting opportunity in many areas; not least of all for furniture design and prompted a new era of industrial design.

In 1956 Eero Saarinen designed a complimentary range of tables and chairs which he named the Tulip range because of the slender, elegant stem like pedestals and organic shapes that typified the pieces. As with his namesake Eero Aarnios' designs the experimental use of materials and minimalist forms are often considered to be space age and their appeal has outlived the period in history from which they originated.

Buy these items as a set or mix and match with other pieces for a more eclectic look.
