For the first time, Herman Miller is giving one of Alexander Girard’s classic designs a broad release—the Girard Flower Table. Initially crafted in brass, this elegant table features a scalloped-edged round top and a petal-inspired base, showcasing Girard’s signature artistic flair. The designer was famously quoted saying, “I have no favorite material; anything can be used to create beauty if handled well.”
Now reimagined in powder-coated steel, the table is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. It comes in two sizes (small and large) and is available in anthracite and red, offering a sleek, modern aesthetic.
The iconic table is now available for purchase through the Herman Miller website and Herman Miller and MillerKnoll dealers. Pricing starts at $995 USD for the small version and $1,295 USD for the large.
