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 Comfortable Chair And Ottoman
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021There are many types of comfortable chairs for your home — it's really a matter of preference. There are features that help ensure that the chair is comfortable such as how it is upholstered, the form of the chair itself and more. Find a variety of vintage, modern and antique chairs on 1stDibs to meet any design style or decor scheme.
- Is a wingback chair comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023Whether a wingback chair is comfortable is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, many wingback chairs feature plush cushioning, and the tall backs can provide ample back support. A wingback’s protruding arms were initially designed to protect a sitter from drafts or intense heat from a fireplace. This may be obsolete in the 21st century, but the chairs have maintained their popularity over the years and have seen waves of revivals, from mid-century modern spin offs to playful contemporary adaptations (like the Bear chair by Pierre Yovanovitch, wherein the place of wings are furry ears — a cheeky send-up of Hans Wegner’s iconic mid-century Papa Bear chair). On 1stDibs, shop a range of wingback chairs.
- Is a Swan chair comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not a Swan chair is comfortable is largely a matter of personal perception. Arne Jacobsen designed the tapered backrest and curved seat of the swiveling accent chair to conform to the shape of the human body, believing it would offer ample support. You'll find a collection of Swan chairs on 1stDibs.
- Is the Shell Chair comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Whether the Shell chair is comfortable is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, creator Hans J. Wegner designed the curves of the backrest and the seat to complement the contours of the human body in order to provide ample support when the Shell chair made its debut in 1963. Chairs became Wegner’s specialty, and over the years he designed over 500 of them. More than 100 of his designs, such as the Wishbone chair and the Papa Bear chair, went into production. Shop a selection of Shell chairs and other vintage Hans Wegner seating on 1stDibs.
- Are Eiffel chairs comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Eiffel chairs were designed to be comfortable first and foremost.

- Are bistro chairs comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023Whether bistro chairs are comfortable is largely a matter of personal opinion.

Shop a collection of Butterfly chairs on 1stDibs.
- Are weave chairs comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Whether weave chairs are comfortable is largely a matter of personal opinion.

- Is a Risom chair comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Whether or not a Risom chair is comfortable is largely a matter of personal perception. Jens Risom believed that the parachute webbing and sturdy maple wood frames of his chair perfectly suited the contours of the human body to deliver ample support. Shop a selection of Jens Risom chairs on 1stDibs.
- Are ghost chairs comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The comfort of ghost chairs is a matter of preference and depends on each sitter’s comfort needs. Ghost chairs are made with polycarbonate plastic, which doesn’t provide any additional cushioning or support. Ghost chairs can be made more comfortable with cushions and throws. Shop a selection of ghost chairs on 1stDibs.

- Are lounge chairs comfortable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024Whether lounge chairs are comfortable or not is a matter of personal opinion.

Arnold Madsen designed the angle of the seat and the curving contours of the iconic chair to fit the shape of the human body so that the piece could provide optimal support.
