Vintage Couch Chair For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal vintage couch chair for your home. Each vintage couch chair for sale was constructed with extraordinary care, often using animal skin, leather and wood. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect vintage couch chair — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century are available. A vintage couch chair is a generally popular piece of furniture, but those created in Mid-Century Modern, Modern and Regency styles are sought with frequency. A well-made vintage couch chair has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by De Sede, Ligne Roset and B&B Italia are consistently popular.

How Much is a Vintage Couch Chair?

A vintage couch chair can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price 1stDibs is $3,500, while the lowest priced sells for $524 and the highest can go for as much as $38,000.

Finding the Right seating for You

With entire areas of our homes reserved for “sitting rooms,” the value of quality antique and vintage seating cannot be overstated.

Fortunately, the design of side chairs, armchairs and other lounge furniture — since what were, quite literally, the early perches of our ancestors — has evolved considerably.

Among the earliest standard seating furniture were stools. Egyptian stools, for example, designed for one person with no seat back, were x-shaped and typically folded to be tucked away. These rudimentary chairs informed the design of Greek and Roman stools, all of which were a long way from Sori Yanagi's Butterfly stool or Alvar Aalto's Stool 60. In the 18th century and earlier, seats with backs and armrests were largely reserved for high nobility.

The seating of today is more inclusive but the style and placement of chairs can still make a statement. Antique desk chairs and armchairs designed in the style of Louis XV, which eventually included painted furniture and were often made of rare woods, feature prominently curved legs as well as Chinese themes and varied ornaments. Much like the thrones of fairy tales and the regency, elegant lounges crafted in the Louis XV style convey wealth and prestige. In the kitchen, the dining chair placed at the head of the table is typically reserved for the head of the household or a revered guest.

Of course, with luxurious vintage or antique furnishings, every chair can seem like the best seat in the house. Whether your preference is stretching out on a plush sofa, such as the Serpentine, designed by Vladimir Kagan, or cozying up in a vintage wingback chair, there is likely to be a comfy classic or contemporary gem for you on 1stDibs.

With respect to the latest obsessions in design, cane seating has been cropping up everywhere, from sleek armchairs to lounge chairs, while bouclé fabric, a staple of modern furniture design, can be seen in mid-century modern, Scandinavian modern and Hollywood Regency furniture styles.

Admirers of the sophisticated craftsmanship and dark woods frequently associated with mid-century modern seating can find timeless furnishings in our expansive collection of lounge chairs, dining chairs and other items — whether they’re vintage editions or alluring official reproductions of iconic designs from the likes of Hans Wegner or from Charles and Ray Eames. Shop our inventory of Egg chairs, designed in 1958 by Arne Jacobsen, the Florence Knoll lounge chair and more.

No matter your style, the collection of unique chairs, sofas and other seating on 1stDibs is surely worthy of a standing ovation.

Questions About Vintage Couch Chair
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    To tell if a couch is vintage, examine its frame and cushions for tags, labels, and stamps that provide information about the maker. In some cases, the date of manufacturing may appear on these identifying markers. If not, research the manufacturer's name using trusted online resources to get an estimate of its age. Any couch that is 20 or more years old would be considered vintage. Sofas that are 100 years of age or older are antiques. Find a collection of antique, vintage and contemporary couches on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    There is no rule that says accent chairs should be a different color than your couch. Many people do choose accent chairs in a different hue to liven up their seating areas. However, you could also go the tonal route with matching pieces and then add more color through home décor like throw pillows. Explore a wide range of accent chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023
    To be vintage, a chair typically needs to be at least 20 years old, while a chair older than 100 years is an antique. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique, vintage and modern dining chairs from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Many factors like wood, construction, and patina come into play when you date a vintage chair. If you can’t find a maker’s mark or any other kind of identifying mark on the piece, consult a furniture encyclopedia or a certified expert. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of vintage chairs from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    To tell how old a vintage chair is, first try and locate the manufacturer's label, tag or mark. Typically, identifying markings and tags appear under cushions or on the undersides of chairs. You may find that the date of manufacturing appears on the label or tag. If not, check trusted online resources to find out when the manufacturer was in business to make an estimate of the age. When in doubt, enlist the help of a certified appraiser or antiques dealer to help you date a particular chair. Find an assortment of antique, vintage and modern chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    To know if your vintage Eames chair is real, check for a reclining mechanism. On original chairs, the back had a permanent reclined position, so no mechanism is necessary. Also, a vintage piece is around 32 inches high, while later reproductions are normally bigger. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of expertly vetted Eames chairs.
