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 Arm Chair is perhaps the most versatile 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.

While we have large quantities of every version of Eero Saarinen’s famed Executive Chair design, we’ve chosen to retain this particular chair as original. This is a contemporary iteration Saarinen Executive Arm Chair featuring a full-featured swivel base with swivel, tilt, and pneumatic lift height adjustment. The Object Refinery team has throughly polished the gorgeous genuine leather in the color Ink Blue. As this chair is original, minor wear exists consistent with age and history. It is however an excellent example of Eero Saarinen’s design, perfect for an in-home office or workstation. Please inquire with us regarding custom restorations with material from our collection or your own. We are also able to accommodate orders of quantity.
