Bamboo Sofa And Chairs For Sale on 1stDibs

Find a variety of bamboo sofa and chairs available on 1stDibs. Frequently made of bamboo, natural fiber and rattan, all bamboo sofa and chairs available were constructed with great care. Bamboo sofa and chairs have been produced for many years, with earlier versions available from the 20th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 20th Century. Bamboo sofa and chairs made by Art Deco designers — as well as those associated with Mid-Century Modern — are very popular at 1stDibs. There have been many well-made bamboo sofa and chairs over the years, but those made by Ficks Reed and Huber are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much are Bamboo Sofa And Chairs?

Bamboo sofa and chairs can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $4,047, while the lowest priced sells for $1,200 and the highest can go for as much as $22,600.

Materials: Bamboo Furniture

Bamboo — the reed-like, woody grass revered the world over for its attractiveness, durability and unbeatable versatility — has a purity and elegance that Ming Dynasty dignitaries, European royals and workaday folks alike have appreciated for centuries. Antique and vintage bamboo furniture can help introduce an air of relaxation in any space, and pairs well with chinoiserie decor and a range of porcelain decorative objects.

So why is bamboo — in its many forms — so enduringly popular? The grass itself is classic-looking and pleasingly geometric, and it evokes a subtle exoticism that’s both glamorous and (due in large part to its sustainability) highly attainable.

Bamboo is harder than mahogany. It’s a rigid and hollow reed, and as such it is not rattan, which is dense, steamable and bendable, and has become its own ultimate decorative-arts chameleon over the years. But like rattan, bamboo is an organic material that provides a link to nature, helping us to bring a bit of the outside in, in an elegant yet no-frills way that seems comforting and familiar. Plus, bamboo’s lightness and slight irregularities make it the perfect counterpoint to heavy-feeling interiors.

For organic modern interiors — or any space that would benefit from a dose of the natural world — a variety of vintage bamboo outdoor furniture, side tables, dining chairs and more can be found on 1stDibs.

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 Bamboo Sofa And Chairs
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    By the strictest definition, a sofa is not a chair. Generally, a chair is a seating solution for one person. Since a sofa seats more than one person at a time, it usually isn't considered a chair. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary chairs and sofas.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Although construction methods also affect durability, bamboo chairs are generally strong due to the properties of bamboo. The tensile strength of bamboo per square inch is greater than that of many other materials, including steel. Shop a variety of bamboo chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    The difference between rattan and bamboo chairs is what they are made of. Rattan comes from a number of vine-like plants and resembles a reed. Derived from grass-like plants in the Bambusoideae subfamily, bamboo is a material more similar to wood. Due to the properties of the materials, rattan chairs tend to be lighter and more flexible than bamboo chairs. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of rattan and bamboo chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    The difference between a sofa and a chair can be summed up by the number of people who can sit on it at one time. A chair is for just one person, while a sofa can accommodate two or more people. Accent chairs used in seating areas often feature upholstery similar to a sofa. However, not all chairs come upholstered, while the vast majority of sofas do. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary sofas and chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Yes, a sofa and chair can match. The choice to match a sofa and chairs is really a matter of preference. General design wisdom recommends against matching your sofa and chairs, however. Juxtaposition can create an interesting sense of diversity in your space — express yourself with a provocative mix of sizes and profiles. Find all kinds of sofas and chairs on 1stDibs to get started.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A sofa chair is an armchair. This single seater chair often pairs with a sofa.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    A single sofa chair is often called a loveseat, which is larger than a typical armchair, but still too small for more than one person. Browse a collection of loveseats today on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023
    Yes, an accent chair can be lower than a sofa. For example, you may place a low slipper chair beside a taller sofa in your seating area. To create a balanced look, limit the height difference between your sofa and accent chairs to no more than four inches. Find a large selection of accent chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    No, your accent chair doesn't have to match your sofa, but many people choose to coordinate them. This means you don't have to purchase matching chairs with your sofa or choose chairs in identical upholstery. Accent chairs and sofas can coordinate if they show off similar colors or materials, giving you the freedom to mix and match. Explore a variety of accent chairs and sofas on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    You can match sofas and accent chairs in a few different ways. One option is to choose sofas and chairs in similar solid colors. Alternatively, you can select a sofa in the primary color of your palette and accent chairs in the secondary hue. Another approach is to pair a patterned sofa with solid-colored accent chairs or vice versa. Find a large selection of sofas and accent chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    There are many chair colors that can complement a green sofa and is a matter of preference. Based on the design style and decor scheme of your living space you could choose colors that complement your green sofa. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of antique and vintage chairs
