Inspired by 1960s Office Classics

Designed with a nod to postwar Danish silhouettes, this piece brings quiet sophistication to your workspace. The deep center drawer and carefully turned legs balance everyday functionality with sculptural precision.

12mm Tempered Glass Top + Solid Walnut Wood Base

Tempered glass is dramatically stronger, shatter-proof and scratch-resistant — making it the perfect material for tabletops. Walnut is a dense and strong wood with a beautiful natural grain — it makes for the perfect raw material for a design obsessed with organic design.

Eero Saarinen

"The purpose of architecture is to shelter and enhance man's life on earth and to fulfill his belief in the nobility of his existence," Eero Saarinen stated in 1959. Saarinen's architectural legacy reflects this vision of boundless potential and optimism in post-war America, seen in iconic projects such as the Gateway Arch in St. Louis and his sculptural furniture.

His designs, including the Womb Chair and Pedestal Table, showcase his mastery of fluid forms and innovative materials, leaving a lasting impact on both architecture and interior design.
