There is something quietly extraordinary about a piece of furniture that has endured for nearly seven decades without a single concession to trend or time. The Oswald 50cm Side Table brings the iconic elegance of Eero Saarinen's 1956 tulip silhouette into your home, rendered in genuine Italian Carrara marble and a sculpted aluminium base. Each slab of marble arrives with its own unrepeatable veining — a reminder that true luxury is never perfectly uniform. Whether placed beside a reading chair, anchoring a bedroom corner, or holding a single vase in a sunlit hallway, this side table transforms the ordinary into something worth pausing over.
Key Features:
Quarried from the mountains of Tuscany, Italian Carrara marble carries centuries of artisanal prestige. Its soft white ground and delicate grey veining make it one of the most sought-after natural stones in the world — and no two slabs are ever the same. The Oswald's marble top is a living surface, one that develops its own quiet patina over time. Handle it with care, protect it from prolonged liquid contact, and it will reward you with a lifetime of effortless beauty.
The moulded aluminium base is more than structural — it is the defining gesture of the design. Inspired by Saarinen's desire to clear the 'slum of legs' from beneath a table, the single-stem tulip form gives the Oswald a lightness and poise that conventional side tables simply cannot match. Finished to complement the cool tones of the marble above, it anchors the piece with quiet confidence.
Because no two marble tops are identical, every Oswald is individually inspected before it leaves the warehouse. Photographs of your specific slab are sent to you prior to dispatch — a small but meaningful gesture that reflects the care taken at every stage. You are not simply ordering a product; you are selecting a piece of natural stone chosen for you.
Marble is a precious material that deserves careful handling at every step of its journey. The Oswald's top is dispatched within a purpose-built wooden crate, providing the structural support and cushioning necessary to deliver your table in perfect condition. It is the kind of detail that matters long before the table finds its place in your home.
The tulip form first appeared in 1956 and has never truly left — because great design does not expire. The Oswald 50cm Side Table captures the essence of that original vision: fluid, minimal, and endlessly versatile. It belongs as naturally in a contemporary apartment as it does in a period home, and it carries with it the kind of quiet authority that only genuine design heritage can provide.
