Vintage Eero Saarinen Tulip Chairs
- Description
- Condition & Authenticity
A classic example of mid-century modern seduction, this sculptural tulip armchair pairs a molded white shell with a single pedestal base, forming a smooth, uninterrupted silhouette synonymous with iconic 1950s–60s interiors—and a certain effortless cool that never tries too hard. The gently contoured back and waterfall seat edge cradle the body just enough to feel intentional, elegant, and quietly flattering.
Finished in a soft white with a warm brown velvet seat cushion, the contrast is subtle but deliberate clean lines softened by texture, restraint offset by comfort. It’s the kind of chair that looks innocent in photos and then surprises you by being very inviting in person. Light wear and surface variation are present throughout, consistent with vintage examples and only adding to its credibility and charm.
Perfect as a dining chair, desk chair, or accent seat, this piece slips effortlessly into modern, contemporary, or eclectic spaces. It doesn’t dominate a room; it knows it belongs there. Ideal for interiors that appreciate good design, good posture, and good conversation.
A timeless design staple with sculptural appeal and quiet sex appeal; because the best mid-century pieces don’t need to shout. They just sit there and let you come to them.

Our collection consists primarily of antique, vintage, and curated objects.
Each piece reflects the passage of time through natural wear, patina, surface variation, and material aging. These characteristics are not considered flaws, but integral to the object’s history, authenticity, and character.
Minor imperfections, variations, and signs of age are inherent to vintage and antique pieces and contribute to their uniqueness and individuality. We celebrate these qualities as part of the beauty of collected interiors and heritage objects.
All sales are final. Due to the nature of antique and vintage items, returns and exchanges are not accepted. We encourage clients to review all descriptions and images carefully and to reach out with any questions prior to purchase.
