Early Eero Saarinen Grasshopper Chair and Ottoman for Knoll

The Eero Saarinen Grasshopper chair and ottoman is a masterclass in organic  modernism.  First designed in 1946 as his first commission for Knoll. This design perfectly captures the transition from rigid pre-war furniture to the fluid sculptural forms that dominated the mid to late 20th century.  It is a symbol of brilliant engineering.  

The chair takes it's name from the resemblance to a grasshoppers rear legs.  Despite the generous size of the chair, it maintains an open airy floating appearance.  This chair is a classic that will never go out of style.  Comfortable and beautiful.

Ottoman: D18.5" x W24" x H16"
