Finding the Right seating for You
With entire areas of our homes reserved for “sitting rooms,” the value of quality antique and vintage seating cannot be overstated.
Fortunately, the design of side chairs, armchairs and other lounge furniture — since what were, quite literally, the early perches of our ancestors — has evolved considerably.
Among the earliest standard seating furniture were stools. Egyptian stools, for example, designed for one person with no seat back, were x-shaped and typically folded to be tucked away. These rudimentary chairs informed the design of Greek and Roman stools, all of which were a long way from Sori Yanagi's Butterfly stool or Alvar Aalto's Stool 60. In the 18th century and earlier, seats with backs and armrests were largely reserved for high nobility.
The seating of today is more inclusive but the style and placement of chairs can still make a statement. Antique desk chairs and armchairs designed in the style of Louis XV, which eventually included painted furniture and were often made of rare woods, feature prominently curved legs as well as Chinese themes and varied ornaments. Much like the thrones of fairy tales and the regency, elegant lounges crafted in the Louis XV style convey wealth and prestige. In the kitchen, the dining chair placed at the head of the table is typically reserved for the head of the household or a revered guest.
Of course, with luxurious vintage or antique furnishings, every chair can seem like the best seat in the house. Whether your preference is stretching out on a plush sofa, such as the Serpentine, designed by Vladimir Kagan, or cozying up in a vintage wingback chair, there is likely to be a comfy classic or contemporary gem for you on 1stDibs.
With respect to the latest obsessions in design, cane seating has been cropping up everywhere, from sleek armchairs to lounge chairs, while bouclé fabric, a staple of modern furniture design, can be seen in mid-century modern, Scandinavian modern and Hollywood Regency furniture styles.
Admirers of the sophisticated craftsmanship and dark woods frequently associated with mid-century modern seating can find timeless furnishings in our expansive collection of lounge chairs, dining chairs and other items — whether they’re vintage editions or alluring official reproductions of iconic designs from the likes of Hans Wegner or from Charles and Ray Eames. Shop our inventory of Egg chairs, designed in 1958 by Arne Jacobsen, the Florence Knoll lounge chair and more.
No matter your style, the collection of unique chairs, sofas and other seating on 1stDibs is surely worthy of a standing ovation.
Questions About One Klismos Chair
- Who made the klismos chair?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022The ancient Greeks made the first klismos chairs. During the Neoclassical period in Europe, the chairs gained popularity again, and many 18th-century designers created seating based on the original klismos design, including Thomas Hope, Georges Jacob and Benjamin Henry Latrobe. Find a range of klismos chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, it's okay to have just one accent chair. There are no rules when decorating a living room, so you're free to place one accent chair along with a loveseat and/or sofa in your seating area. When choosing your living room furniture, consider how much space you have and how many people will typically be sitting in the room at one time. Use this information as a guide. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of accent chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024A one-piece chair is typically called a monobloc chair. The term typically refers to chairs crafted out of a single piece of a synthetic material, such as resin or polyethylene. In most cases, monobloc chairs are lightweight and stackable. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024Whether you need one or two accent chairs depends on your personal preferences and the space. First, consider the layout of your room. In a small space, two accent chairs may make a seating area feel cramped, while having just one may result in a larger room feeling too empty. Also, think about how many people you're likely to entertain in your seating area and what other furniture is present in the space. If you frequently need additional seating to accommodate large groups, you may want to purchase a second accent chair. Find a wide range of accent chairs on 1stDibs.
