Shop a variety of maritime paintings from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How a ship's telegraph works involves two components: one in the bridge and one in the engine room. The captain turns the dial to a desired command on the bridge side. This causes a bell to ring in the engine room and the dial to move to the corresponding position to share the captain's orders. On 1stDibs, shop a range of ship's telegraphs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Ship’s wheels are usually made from wood, and often feature eight or six spokes with curved handles to allow for comfortable adjustment of the wheel.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Historically, a bell was rung to denote each half hour of the four-hour long “watch” periods on a ship. The bell was rung manually and time was often kept by a sandglass rather than a clock. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of ship’s bells and nautical clocks.
- David Brooker Fine ArtMay 13, 2021It depends on the size and how a painting is framed. When we ship paintings from sales on 1st dibs I use professional packers to pack the piece and then either DHL, UPS or FedEx to ship.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The best way to ship a poster is to Roll your poster, along with acid-free tissue paper, and place it in the shipping tube. Close the shipping tube with a cap.

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023The difference between a lounge chair and a chair is specificity. A chair is the general term for furniture typically designed to seat one person at a time, and there are many different kinds of chairs, including dining, accent and office chairs. Lounge chairs are another example of a specific type of chair. They are chairs with a footrest that allows you to elevate your feet while sitting. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023To tell if a chair is an Eames chair, take a look under the seat or cushion. Authentic Eames lounge chairs are manufactured by Herman Miller and Vitra. If your Eames chair is a Herman Miller original, look for the legendary manufacturer’s specific logomarks on the product (these logomarks can be found on the company’s official website). There is also the manufacturing label, which is usually found under the seat or cushion (unless a former owner removed it). All of the classic Herman Miller designs are paired with a certificate of authenticity. Some designs may also have a medallion attached to certify their authenticity. You can then check trusted online resources to determine if the information on the label is correct for the style of chair (and more info on its construction is available on the official Eames website). You won’t see screws outside of the wood shells on an authentic Eames lounge chair, and prior to the 1970s, original vintage Eames lounge chairs were made with no more than five layers of plywood (during the 1970s, the chairs were made with seven layers). Find a variety of authentic Eames chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023The difference between an accent chair and a dining chair comes down to function and design. An accent chair usually goes in a seating area, and makers craft them with comfort in mind. As a result, most accent chairs feature cushioning and upholstery and are characterized by generous proportions. The purpose of a dining chair is to provide a place to sit while enjoying a meal. Usually, dining chairs are lighter and smaller than accent chairs for easy maneuvering. While they may have padded seats and backrests, dining chairs generally aren't as abundantly cushioned as accent chairs. Explore a large selection of chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022A club chair is called a club chair because the accent chairs became popular in the interior décor of gentleman's clubs in France. The original name for the club chair is “fauteuil confortable," which translates to "comfortable chair." You'll find a collection of club chairs on 1stDibs.
