Questions About High Back Velvet
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023
    Whether velvet is high-maintenance is a matter of opinion. To keep velvet upholstery clean, vacuum it regularly using a hose attachment. Soak up stains with absorbent cloths as soon as they happen and then treat stains with a product labeled as safe for velvet. Generally, synthetic velvet is more stain-resistant than pure cotton or silk velvet. Shop a range of velvet furniture on 1stDibs.

  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    High-backed old-fashioned chairs are often called wingback chairs. They may not offer structural support, but the wings on antique and vintage wingback chairs certainly do have a purpose or did, when the design was first conceived in England in the 1600s. Back then, the armchair protrusions were meant to protect the sitter from drafts and from the strong heat radiating from the large fireplaces that were popular at the time. This explains why the wingback is so strongly associated with cozying up by the fireplace. Although the functional aspect of a wingback may be obsolete in the 21st century, the chairs have maintained their popularity over the years and have seen waves of revivals. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique, vintage and modern wingback chairs from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
