    Vintage is a somewhat interpretable term for older clocks. If a clock is over 100 years old, it can officially be considered antique, but vintage is a bit more open of a term. Many collectors consider around 50 years old to be vintage, but a more open concept is that if the clock could not be reproduced today, it could be considered vintage. On 1stDibs, find an array of beautiful vintage and antique clocks.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Vintage clothes are usually 20 years old or older. Unlike jewelry, clothing is usually not referred to as antique. As a result, people usually use the term vintage to describe all garments produced at least two decades ago. In some cases, you may see clothing that is 100 years old or more referred to as historical or period clothes. Find a wide range of vintage apparel on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    How old something needs to be in order to be considered vintage is at least 20 years. For jewelry, furniture and decorative objects, vintage items are less than 100 years old; those produced more than a century ago are antique. Typically, clothing and accessories made two decades ago or more are classified as vintage, as antique is rarely applied to fashion. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of vintage apparel, jewelry, furniture and other items.

    How old peacock chairs are, as well as their origin, has been debated for decades. Not to be confused with the Peacock chair created by Danish furniture maker Hans J. Wegner, the iconic wicker seating design is believed to have first appeared in the Philippines. The American silent film-era actress Norma Talmadge posed in a peacock chair for a promotional photograph, and the seats became a staple of photo shoots, earning acclaim during the mid-century years in the United States when they appeared in publicity materials for prominent musicians and other celebrities. The chair became popular again during the 1960s in Haight-Ashbury, and it was featured at the time in a famous photograph of political activist and Black Panther Party cofounder Huey P. Newton. On 1stDibs, shop a range of peacock chairs.

    Vintage costume jewelry refers to costume jewelry that is 20 to 80 years old. Jewelry, costume or otherwise, that is 100 years old is referred to as antique. The big design fair in Paris in 1900 inspired jewelers to work with inexpensive materials, and Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel and others helped popularize costume jewelry during the 1920s. The roots of costume jewelry, however, took shape at least as far back as the 18th century, when paste jewelry that featured hand-cut glass instead of gemstones first emerged. Shop a variety of vintage costume jewelry on 1stDibs.

    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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Many factors like wood, construction, and patina come into play when you date a vintage chair. If you can’t find a maker’s mark or any other kind of identifying mark on the piece, consult a furniture encyclopedia or a certified expert. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of vintage chairs from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    To know if your vintage Eames chair is real, check for a reclining mechanism. On original chairs, the back had a permanent reclined position, so no mechanism is necessary. Also, a vintage piece is around 32 inches high, while later reproductions are normally bigger. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of expertly vetted Eames chairs.
