Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
Designer Profile
Eero Saarinen
Eero Saarinen was a mid-century designer who would go on to author some of the most recognisable designs of all time. He did his best work at Knoll, bringing forth icons such as the Saarinen Tulip collection and the Womb Lounge Chair. Though his oeuvre resists easy pigeon-holing, he could often be found experimenting with modern materials, conjuring up avant-garde silhouettes for everyday problems.
Brand Profile
Knoll
For nearly 80 years Knoll has remained true to the Bauhaus design philosophy; Adaptive, inspiring, evolutionary and enduring. A long history of collaborations, with pioneering modernists to bold contemporary designers, define not only the past but the future of Knoll with David Rockwell, Antenna Design, Barber Osgerby, Formway Design, Don Chadwick, David Adjaye, and Rem Koolhaas. They offer thoughtful, inventive products which respond to their environment and can transcend multiple generations.
