How Much is a Mediterranean Patio Furniture?
Finding the Right Building And Garden Elements for You
Choosing the right antique or vintage building and garden elements can prove pivotal when you’re working to beautify any room in your home or just put the finishing touches on a garden or other outdoor area.
It takes time and effort to improve your outdoor space or merely to bring an air of tranquility to an indoor area set aside for private relaxation or gathering with friends. The good news is that 1stDibs can help.
To introduce a sense of timelessness to a back patio or interior common area, choose cast-stone statues or sculptural busts for a dose of drama or select ornate architectural elements such as corbels, plaques or panels made of marble or iron. Elsewhere, find a focal point in your living room and create a “feature wall” by bringing pops of color into a corner with handmade antique ceramic tiles.
It helps when design changes like these have a practical upside too.
Victorian cast-iron stair treads hearken back to a time when adding decorative details to your property was a priority. While lending an attractive appearance to an exterior staircase, these safeguards render the steps slip-resistant for those coming and going. And as one good stylistic choice usually leads to another, pairing your sophisticated treads with a coupling of 19th-century hand-forged andirons would be a thoughtful, durable touch for any courtyard or comfortable lounge space, be they intended for an indoor fireplace or a patio firepit.
Where the garden is concerned, any sophisticated garden ornaments you select should work with nature, not against it. Wrought-iron garden gates will simply refuse to be relegated to the background. Instead, they’ll draw attention to your painstakingly sculpted hedges and colorful flora. When paired with a sparse arrangement of other tasteful additions, such as a stone planter, garden stool or other welcoming pieces of outdoor seating, the effect can be transformative.
On 1stDibs, find a sprawling collection of antique garden furniture and architectural elements that meet every need. Our offerings include everything from sculptural bathroom fixtures to flooring ideas to pedestals and columns designed in a variety of styles and much more.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Patio furniture can be more expensive than other types of furniture because it's designed and crafted to withstand harsher conditions. The materials designers use to make outdoor furniture—woods, synthetics, metals and durable fabrics—are more expensive to source than other types of materials.
- AutomatonMarch 10, 2021The best color for patio furniture greatly depends on your style and color scheme, however one aspect to always consider is how much UV will the furniture receive.

Two highly popular and sought-after patio furniture designs are the Richard Schultz for Knoll collection which predominantly comes in white to avoid sun fading. And the other is Walter Lamb for Brown Jordan as the copper frames develop a beautiful bluish green patina color which continues to develop over the years resulting in furniture that actually gets better over time, just like a fine wine.
