This set of four classic mid century armchairs are known as Eero Saarinen Executive chairs. They were designed by the famous architect and designer Eero Saarinen and manufactured by Knoll International.
The chair was originally designed in 1957 and was featured in nearly all Florence Knoll designed interiors. It later won the Federal Award for Industrial Design in 1969. Originally intended for office use, the beloved design and comfort has made it a favorite for residential use. They are perfect mid century modern seating for dining rooms and breakfast areas
This set of four Eero Saarinen Executive chairs appears to have its original heavy woven Knoll upholstery that remains in very nice condition. The seamless steel tubular legs with polished chrome finish are in very nice condition and retain all their glides.
