Has anyone seen an Eero Saarinen with lacquered legs?

Hi everyone!
We recently restored this Eero Saarinen at the atelier - photos show before and after pictures. However the legs came lacquered, did Knoll produced lacquered version of the legs?

I have posted a picture of the legs upside down.

 

Great job, talissa.

Yes they did. In the Knoll shop you can select the finish for some models:

You can even select wood on some:

Great thread.

 

Hi,
Thanks for your reply! (and the following one which sounded ironic haha)
I was referring to the specific model i posted which is the executive chair. I haven't found a single one with lacquered legs - they are all chrome. Guess I'll never know!

 

Some posts have been removed after someone realised a mistake. So it wasn't ironic towards your chair, not at all. I thought he had found it, though, but apparently he thought he hadn't. The one he found did have both lacquered and chrome versions.

 

I apologize for any confusion yesterday. This is what I had posted but it's just mentions black, not black lacquered. After I realized that this chair has been copied I deleted my post, well most of it anyway, thinking I wasn't adding any information. Here the link is but it just says black tubular and black paint.

Of course, sorry about that, got confused with king, who also posted.

 

Thank you for taking the time to clarify things. People are really friendly in this forum, very grateful. I thought you ment great thread because I wasn't getting any feedback hahaha.

 

Oh yes the chair certainly has been copied many times... I'll try to dig deeper to find out if mine is an original edition. thanks for the link!
