Eva Zeisel Coffee Table

28 Sep 2007 16:50:00 GMT

Price: $1,500.00

Born in 1906 and still designing today, Eva Zeisel is continually intrigued by what she calls her "playful search for beauty." Zeisel is world renowned for her ceramics, and when she was in her early 80s, she started designing tables. The medium may have changed, but her Coffee Table (1993) is still very Zeisel with its whimsical lines and ornamental motifs. A person of delightfully defiant spirit, Zeisel was just beginning her career when she declared war on the fashionable avant-garde. "I didn't accept the purism of modern design," she says. "In my definition, if it gave beauty to the eye, it was beauty." Even when MoMA was an advocate of straight-lined Bauhaus design, Zeisel gave them curved feminine forms. The result of such an approach is a design that's truly timeless. "I always live life in the present," says Zeisel. "Eternity is only in the present." In 2005, Eva Zeisel was awarded the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award for Lifetime Achievement.

The Noguchi Table (1947) conceals nothing; revealing everything about the nature of simplicity.

Practical and beautiful, the Noguchi Table will uphold a variety of objects in a professional reception area or the home. Simple assembly required.

Platner Coffee Table

25 Sep 2007 21:47:00 GMT

Price: $1,213.00

If you combined the work of I.M. Pei and Eero Saarinen, the result might very well look like the Platner Collection (1966). Warren Platner worked with both of the industrial and organic design giants before turning his attention to steel wire furniture, for which he devised the structure and production method. Requiring as many as 1,000 welds and crafted out of wire and space, the Coffee Table demonstrates Platner's belief that there is room in modernism "for the kind of decorative, gentle, graceful design that appeared in a period style like Louis XV." Constructed of metal components that are finished in bright nickel with a clear lacquer protective coating, the table features a clear plastic extrusion ring surrounding the base to protect floors and ensure a level tabletop. The tabletop is made of .4" thick tempered glass. The Platner Collection is Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified for low-emitting products. Manufactured by Knoll® according to the original and exacting specifications of the designer. Made in Italy.

Splay-Leg Coffee Table

13 Mar 2009 19:15:00 GMT

Price: $1,495.00

George Nakashima regarded cabinetry and woodwork as a noble art form – a view evidenced in the pieces he designed for Knoll. His Splay-Leg Coffee Table (1948) exhibits his gifted sense of grain, texture and balance. The veneered walnut or hickory top has a reverse slip-matched cathedral grain, which allows the table to be placed facing either way. Mortise and tenon joints and brass hardware secure the top to the angled solid walnut legs, creating a simple, heirloom-quality modern classic. Nakashima referred to himself as a “Japanese shaker,” expressing the belief that his designs should be treated as everyday functional objects, not precious possessions. The Shaker influence can be noted in his extraordinary skill at crafting wood, a material he approached with great reverence, saying, “A tree is our most intimate contact with nature.” A signature plate on the underside of the table attests to its authenticity. This Table is manufactured by Knoll.

Girard Table

2 Jan 2008 00:09:00 GMT

Price: $790.00

“Art is only art when it is synonymous with living,” said Alexander Girard, who is widely recognized for his work in textiles and furniture. The designer was true to his words when he created the Girard Coffee Table (1948) for Knoll®. The art of this coffee table is its book-matched walnut veneer tabletop, organic shape and smooth 45-degree beveled edge. The “living” part is in how the table can be positioned with either the straight or asymmetrical side toward the seating area, providing a large surface area in a relatively narrow footprint. Girard’s work has been the subject of many museum exhibitions, including a 2004 retrospective at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. Manufactured by Knoll according to the original and exacting specifications of the designer.

Taburet M Stacking Stool

11 Sep 2007 17:03:00 GMT

Price: $340.00

The Taburet M Stacking Stool is almost pure abstraction, making minimum impact on space and redefining "seat" in the simplest sense. Yet, the stool is quite substantial, offering a low, comfortable seat suited to a retail setting, showroom, gallery or reception area. The Taburet M Stacking Stool was designed by Danish craftsman/designer Jørgen Møller, who, along with Bruno Mathsson, became one of the early leading exponents of modern Danish design. Like Mathsson, Møller sought new solutions rather than drawing from tradition,and created light, minimal structures.
