At 1stDibs, there are several options of camelback sofas available for sale. Each of these unique camelback sofas was constructed with extraordinary care, often using
fabric,
wood and
upholstery. There are 19 antique and vintage camelback sofas for sale at 1stDibs, while we also have 2 modern editions to choose from as well. There are all kinds of camelback sofas available, from those produced as long ago as the 18th Century to those made as recently as the 21st Century. Camelback sofas are generally popular furniture pieces, but
Georgian,
mid-century modern and
modern styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Not every interior allows for large camelback sofas, so small camelback sofas measuring 50.25 inches across are available at 1stDibs. There have been many well-made camelback sofas over the years, but those made by
Century Furniture,
Kravet Furniture and
Schumacher are often thought to be among the most beautiful.
Vintage couches and antique sofas have anchored living rooms for generations. The pieces most sought after today carry the deep-buttoned tufting of a Chesterfield or the low, sculptural ease of mid-century modern and Hollywood Regency design.
Styles to Know
Rolled arms and tufted backs point to Mid-Century Modern or Hollywood Regency pieces, while tight backs and turned legs skew more traditional. Velvet is enjoying a renewed moment across most of these silhouettes; see our velvet chesterfield sofa trend report for examples. A mid-century modern coffee table within reach and a vintage mirror nearby round out the seating area.
How to Choose the Right Vintage Sofa
A sofa's frame and upholstery history can be difficult to judge from photographs alone. Ask a seller for more information when a listing doesn't show the fabric or joinery clearly, and confirm whether the upholstery is original or has been redone. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed, and the 1stDibs Promise stands behind every purchase.
