Stylish and modern, the Saarinen Oval Coffee Table is a design masterpiece. THE DESIGN | FEATURES AT A GLANCE | DIMENSIONS | ORDER WITH CONFIDENCE The Design Eero Saarinen might be considered by some to be a purist when it came to his approach towards architecture and interior design. He sought the essential idea and reduced it to the most effective structural solution within an overall unity of design. When he designed his pedestal collection, including this oval coffee table, Saarinen realized his ideal of formal unity: "Every significant piece of furniture from the past has a holistic structure." The Knoll logo is stamped into the base of the Saarinen tables and the top features a nameplate with the Saarinen's signature.
