Eero Saarinen’s design career was both wildly iconic yet sadly short-lived. His work in furniture design and architecture was centuries ahead of its time and quite possibly only achievable by Saarinen himself. His furniture work aided his design process for architecture and vice a versa, he understood the human form and how people interact with design in the world. These iconic Saarinen Executive Chairs remain one of his most notable designs, instantly recognizable and widely used to this day.
The Saarinen Executive Armless Chair is perhaps the most versatile dining chair known from the Mid-Century Modern design movement. Saarinen’s mastery of swooping curves invite users to sit and be embraced by a level of comfort only he could achieve. The iconic opening of the chair’s back allows for a slight “give” as one sits back. This chair is in every way a Saarinen sculpture; beautiful at every angle. We have restored and upholstered each chair using Angora Mohair in the color Sand. In addition to new upholstery, all of the original ebonized walnut legs have been refinished. The result is an exquisite set of 8 Saarinen Executive Armless Chairs in mohair.
