What is the difference between modern furniture and old furniture?
1 Answer
1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
The difference between modern furniture and old furniture is in the specificity of the term. Generally, pieces considered modern date from between the end of World War II in 1945 and the end of the 1970s. During this period, more furniture makers mass produced pieces, and designers increasingly used new materials, such as plywood and plastic. Old furniture is not a specific term. People frequently use the term old for anything that subjectively appears aged. Explore a large selection of modern furniture on 1stDibs.

How do I identify my furniture?
2 Answers
1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
An easy way to identify your furniture is to look at the manufacturing label, stamp, or tag which shows the name of the creator. There might also be a signature from the furniture maker instead.
1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021
You can easily identify your furniture by looking over them in areas such as the underside or backside. If there are drawers, you can pull them out to inspect all the sides.
