Key Features
Florence Knoll challenged legendary designer Eero Saarinen to create a chair that she could curl up in that provides a supreme amount of comfort. The result: the Saarinen Womb Chair. Designed in 1948, this timeless piece was crafted in a way to provide a sense of comfort and security. Its unique seat is created from a molded, reinforced fiberglass shell which is layered in dense foam and topped with separate seat and back cushions in polyester fiver over a foam core. Its stable look is finished with a steel rod base. Ideal for any living room, guest room or bedroom, choose the aesthetic that works best for your modern home.
Knoll is Modern Always® because modern always works. For over 80 years, each chair, table, and desk has been conceived and constructed with a forward-thinking mentality, using the most advanced production methods and materials to create an immersive sensory experience that can last a lifetime. In doing so, the company has mastered the vital and nuanced elements behind furniture efficiency, ergonomics, and comfort while, at the same time, using recovery practices and materials that positively impact the environment.
