He is especially known for his tulip style designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Finland, Eero Saarinen immigrated with his parents to America when he was 13. His family settled in Michigan where he studied sculpture and furniture design. After a stint in Paris at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, Saarinen attended the Yale School of Architecture and graduated in 1934. \u003ca title=\"Eero Saarinen Designer Bio\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.franceandson.com\/?page_id=57\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eRead More...\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"carrara-marble-tulip-pedestal-dining-table-round","title":"Carrara Marble Pedestal Tulip Dining Table - Round","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Solid Italian Carrara Marble Top, Cast Aluminum Tulip Style Base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Glossy White Base, Polished Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePartial Assembly Required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach slab of solid marble is unique and entirely natural with a pencil beveled edge.
