Authentic Knoll Eero Saarinen Womb Chair and Ottoman – Leather Edition
This is an authentic Knoll Womb Chair and Ottoman designed by Eero Saarinen in 1946. The chair has been professionally reupholstered with high-quality Knoll Spinneybeck leather by a renowned upholstery shop in Los Angeles. Unlike the fabric version, this rare leather edition is significantly more valuable and sought after, as leather Womb Chairs are far less common. The chair is in like-new condition, featuring brand-new premium leather.
Specifications:
- Designer: Eero Saarinen
- Manufacturer: Knoll
- Year Designed: 1946
- Upholstery: Genuine Knoll Spinneybeck leather
- Condition: Like new, with newly reupholstered leather
- Dimensions: 35½ inches high x 40 inches wide x 34 inches deep
History and Design Significance:
Eero Saarinen designed the Womb Chair at the request of Florence Knoll, who wanted a chair that she could “curl up in.” The result was one of the most celebrated pieces of Mid-Century Modern furniture, known for its enveloping, sculptural form. Saarinen’s expertise in creating organic shapes is evident in this chair, echoing the expressive curves seen in his architectural work, including the TWA Terminal (now the TWA Hotel) at JFK Airport and the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.
The Womb Chair’s molded fiberglass shell, layered with foam padding, allows for a relaxed yet supportive seating posture, making it an ideal lounge chair for both comfort and style. Manufactured by Knoll according to Saarinen’s original specifications, this piece remains an enduring symbol of modernist design and is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of authentic Mid-Century furniture.
Why This Chair Stands Out:
- Authentic Knoll production, ensuring quality and value
- Professionally restored with premium Knoll Spinneybeck leather
- A rare leather edition, making it highly collectible
- Timeless Mid-Century Modern design, perfect for any interior
This chair is a statement piece that combines comfort, artistry, and investment-grade craftsmanship. White glove delivery available.
