Knoll Barcelona chair

The Knoll Barcelona chair is a true icon of Modernist furniture design. Designed by Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe in 1929 for the German Pavilion at the Exposicion Internacional de Barcelona, the Barcelona Chair was actually used as a throne for King Alfonso XIII at the exhibition's opening ceremony.

The handmade process involved in making it is time consuming, the upholsterer uses 40 Individual leather panels for the chair and 16 for the stool, the leather panels are cut, hand-welted and hand-tufted from a single cowhide. The Barcelona chair is often copied (a form of flattery in our opinion to the timelessness of the design) but never bettered, the Knoll original version is truly outstanding. Also comes with an Ottoman for extra comfort.

iconic tulip tables

Designed by Eero Saarinen in 1957, the Tulip Table collection are true Design Classics with a modern and timeless appearance. Eero Saarinen wanted to tidy up what he saw as the 'slum' of legs with traditional tables and chairs and so created the sculptural and sensuous monobloc bases that have given the collection its nickname – Tulip.

The edge of the tables have a beautiful bevelled edge and the heavy base adds to the feeling of luxury. As it is a true original the Knoll logo is located on the underside of the base with a Knoll Studio nameplate and the signature of the designer.
