Pre-owned Knoll furniture
HFOC is Australia's premier marketplace for pre-owned designer furniture, and we frequently list authentic second-hand Knoll pieces. Browse chairs, tables and lounge seating from the American house that gave modernism its mid-century canon, including Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona chair, Eero Saarinen's Womb and Tulip designs and Harry Bertoia's Diamond chair. Each piece is priced well below buying new.
About Knoll
Hans Knoll founded the company in New York City in 1938, and production moved to Pennsylvania in 1950. After his death in 1955, his wife Florence Knoll took over as head of the company, a role she carried out with rather more authority than the title suggests.
Knoll's catalogue reads like a syllabus in modern design. Eero Saarinen's Womb chair (1948), Tulip chair (commissioned for production in 1956) and Saarinen table (1957) sit alongside Jens Risom's Model 650 (1941) and Harry Bertoia's Diamond chair. In 1953 Knoll received the exclusive manufacturing and sales rights to Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona chair, originally created for the 1929 Barcelona Pavilion, and it also holds the production rights to Marcel Breuer's Wassily chair. In 2021 Herman Miller acquired Knoll, and the combined company was renamed MillerKnoll.
Why buy Knoll second-hand? These are designs that have been in continuous demand for decades, so a well-kept piece holds its appeal. Buying through HFOC gets you the original at a price well below retail. Delivery is available across all Australian metros.
