Empty Chair For Sale on 1stDibs

Find the exact empty chair you’re shopping for in the variety available on 1stDibs. In our selection of items, you can find Impressionist examples as well as a contemporary version. You’re likely to find the perfect empty chair among the distinctive items we have available, which includes versions made as long ago as the 18th Century as well as those made as recently as the 21st Century. Adding an empty chair to a room that is mostly decorated in warm neutral tones can yield a welcome change — find a piece on 1stDibs that incorporates elements of gray, black, beige, blue and more. An empty chair from Stefanie Schneider, Mark Shaw, Matt Condron, Olaf Otto Becker and Corne Akkers — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. These artworks were handmade with extraordinary care, with artists most often working in paint, oil paint and paper. A large empty chair can be an attractive addition to some spaces, while smaller examples are available — approximately spanning 6.97 high and 6.89 wide — and may be better suited to a more modest living area.
