girard flower table
Bring natural beauty home with Girard Flower Table. Designed by Alexander Girard, its playful silhouette features scalloped edges and a petal-shaped base, offering a bright and modern expression for indoor and outdoor spaces alike. Offered in two sizes, this versatile table can be used solo or combined in a playful and compelling arrangement.
Throughout the 1950s, Girard collaborated with famed architect Eero Saarinen to design the legendary Miller House in Columbus, Indiana. Incorporating pieces by Nelson, Eames, and Saarinen with his own designs, Girard's interior furnishings injected intimacy and warmth throughout the modernist abode. He decorated a genre-defining conversation pit (a sunken lounge area with built-in seating) with his signature textiles, making it the heart of the home. He designed a custom brass, flower-shaped occasional table for the conversation pit centerpiece. The table was modified with an altered top in 1977 and still stands in its original location. In 2022, Girard Studio, co-directed by Girard’s grandchildren, and Vitra carefully reinterpreted the table design.
Now available from Herman Miller, the Girard Flower Table is a modern take on a blooming flower with a round metal table top with scalloped edges and a repeating petal-shaped pattern to create the base. The table is available in small and large sizes and anthracite and vivid red colors. The dual sizes and colors are designed to be positioned together or apart. Made of powder-coated steel, the table is functional for indoor and outdoor use, in a variety of settings.
