Some Classic Vornado Design - Vornado Fan Table

Vintage 1950's Era Vornado Table Fan

A big thanks to sharpknees for posting up some pics of his 28F Vornado Fan Table. A little bit Jetsons, a little bit Eames- this is a classic with a unique and functional application of Vornado's Whole Room Circulation. Another "thank you" to fan guru ZacharyDY4's enthusiasm and knowledge on seemingly every fan out there, including Vornado!

Vornado still manufactures a vintage style fan that features the classic design cues of 1940's and 1950's era Vornados. If you have a Vornado Fan or Heater that you would like to show the world, join our Vornado Fan Club group on Flickr, and show us what you've got!

  1. It's worth mentioning that the fan in the photo tilts up, and blasts air onto the specially shaped surface above it.

    Products like this were particularly useful in a time when air conditioning wasn't as widely adopted, and wasn't nearly as effective as it is today. As Zachary points out in the picture, this is a 1957 or 1958 model.
