Eero Saarinen Tulip Chair Restoration

 

The classic “tulip” chair designed by Eero Saarinen for Knoll is now a perennial classic. Our client came to us to restore her vintage tulip chairs and stools that were in need of some serious TLC.

To restore these tulip chairs, we powder coated the tulip-style bases in a crisp white. We refinished the molded fiberglass seat shells with a glossy white acrylic urethane. And we reupholstered the tulip chair cushions with an emerald green performance velvet from F. Schumacher.
