I am not having much luck finding three knoll saarinen armless tulip chairs with padded seats. Ebay is getting a little out of hand with their prices (or maybe it's just me) plus there are so many that really aren't knoll.
I am willing to do a little mix and match (in otherwise if the shell is in good shape and the base is not and visa versa). I am also assuming that I will have to replace the cushions. I do not mind if they are missing lables as long as they are authentic knoll design.
I do have three great shape (padded seat not so hot) stationary armless saarinens (lableless but you can see where the lable was) that I might consider trading. Anyone have any leads?

I feel your pain.Just keep checking Craigslist NYC,as there are more Knoll Tulips in NYC per capita than anywhere else on the planet.Got a nice(reasonably priced) pair of Tulip armchairs in April from a lady on 10th!The Ebay is hit or miss,many Burke,many beat up originals which peole price as if they're Gold.Then there's ridiculous shipping charges added.your better off with Craigslist NYC.In fact,there's much great stuff listed there daily!! -G'luck !!

saarinen
I think you are right! I know that I picked up the 6 I have plus table on Craigs up in CT. The problem is I really need only 2 arm and 4 armless (of which I have 2 but one has a crack in the seat). Way too much of ebay is Burke and shipping knoll kills the deal!!!
