Womb Chair


In tribute to my obsession with chairs, I thought I would talk a little bit about Eero Saarinen's Womb Chair. Designed for Knoll, the Finnish born architect and designer was challenged to create a chair that Florence Knoll could curl up in. The Womb Chair's enveloping, lap-like form continues to be one of the most iconic and recognized representations of mid-century Scandinavian organic modernism.

Another plus. They are manufactured in the USA.
