How Much is a Pair Of Bonacina?
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.
- How do I pair palazzo pants?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How you pair palazzo pants is largely a matter of personal preference. Many people choose to balance the flowy oversize shape of the pants with fitted tops, sweaters or turtlenecks. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of vintage and designer palazzo pants.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024No one can say for sure who made the first pair of pants. However, anthropologists and archaeologists have traced the origins of pants back to ancient China. The oldest pants to have been discovered so far date back to between the 13th and 10th centuries B.C. These early garments were found on mummies in tombs in the Tarim Basin of western China. Find a large selection of pants for men and women on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022For a casual look, pair your Versace dress shirt with a nice pair of jeans and your favorite pair of loafers or casual pumps. For a more dressy look, pair it with dress slacks or a fitted skirt and dress shoes or heels. Find authentic Versace pieces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024To tell how old a pair of glasses is, you can examine it closely and then conduct some research using trusted online resources. If you see a mark that indicates the maker, use the manufacturer as a starting point. Find out when the company was in business and look at catalogues and other references to determine when it produced similar styles. If you can't find a maker, your glasses will likely be from the late 20th century or earlier. In this case, you can research the characteristics of your glasses to get a rough idea of the age. For example, nose pads didn't come into use until the 1920s. Another feature of eyeglasses introduced in the 1920s is positioning the temples at the upper corners of the frames rather than in the middle. If you need help with dating, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of eyeglasses.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024No one knows for sure what the first pair of jeans looked like, as historians are unsure who created the earliest example of jeans. However, we do have a rough idea of what the first Levi Strauss & Co. jeans produced during the 1830s looked like. They were blue denim trousers with straight, relaxed legs. The jeans featured five riveted pockets and a button fly. Instead of belt loops, the jeans had one single angled loop at the waist designed to hold a hammer or other tool. Shop a wide range of jeans from some of the world's top boutiques on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022What pairs well with the CH07 chair by Hans Wegner is largely a matter of personal preference. To keep the eye focused on its dramatic curves, some interior decorators pair it with simple boxy sofas and tables. Feel free to experiment and create your own furniture layouts using the CH07 or shell chair. Find a collection of Hans Wegner CH07 shell chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021The average cost of a pair of diamond stud earrings with a total carat weight of 1-carat is $2,495. Depending on the clarity, cut and color of the diamond, the price and other details may vary. On 1sDibs, shop for antique and vintage diamond earrings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023To pair an oval engagement ring with a wedding band, first consider the shape. Both domed and flat bands can complement the shape of an oval-cut gemstone. You may also want to consider a contoured band that will hug the curves of the gem. Next, decide what type of metal will coordinate with the engagement ring. An easy choice is to have the two rings crafted out of the same metal, such as 18-karat yellow gold or platinum. Explore a large selection of wedding bands on 1stDibs.
