At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal deco vanity table for your home. Frequently made of
wood,
glass and
mirror, every deco vanity table was constructed with great care. If you’re shopping for a deco vanity table, we have 714 options in-stock, while there are 24 modern editions to choose from as well. Whether you’re looking for an older or newer deco vanity table, there are earlier versions available from the 19th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 21st Century. A deco vanity table made by
Art Deco designers — as well as those associated with
mid-century modern — is very popular. A well-made deco vanity table has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by
Gilbert Rohde,
R & Y Augousti and
Grosfeld House are consistently popular. You’ll find that an occasional deco vanity table may be too large for some spaces — a variety of smaller editions, measuring 3.25 across, are available at 1stDibs.
Vintage vanities trace back to the dressing tables of 18th-century France, where the poudreuse held powders and mirrors for a lady's toilette. The look later split in two: the gilded flourish of Art Deco and Louis XV, and the pared-back simplicity of the mid-century makeup vanity.
Styles to Know
Mid-century makeup vanities with slim tapered legs are seeing strong search interest, though Art Deco vanities with mirrored or lacquered finishes remain a popular choice for more formal bedrooms. A vintage mirror completes the piece if it doesn't already include one, and a vintage table lamp adds flattering light.
How to Choose the Right Vintage Vanity
A vanity works best near a window or another source of natural light, worth keeping in mind when planning where it will sit, and the knee-clearance height is worth checking against the stool you intend to pair with it. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed. Backed by the 1stDibs Promise on every order.
