Knoll red chairs have been produced for many years, with earlier versions available from the 20th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 21st Century. There are many kinds of knoll red chairs to choose from, but at 1stDibs, Mid-Century Modern, Modern and Scandinavian Modern knoll red chairs are of considerable interest. Knoll red chairs have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Knoll, Eero Saarinen and Harry Bertoia are consistently popular.
How Much are Knoll Red Chairs?

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 Knoll Red Chairs
- What is a Parker Knoll chair?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A Parker Knoll chair is designed by the British furniture manufacturing company Parker Knoll. These chairs are considered to be luxurious — they are handmade in the company’s Nottinghamshire factory from high-quality wood and feature plush upholstery in leather as well as in a variety of fabrics. Find Parker Knoll chairs on 1stDibs.
- Where are Knoll chairs made?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Knoll maintains manufacturing plants in the United States, Canada, and Italy. Countless designers have worked for Knoll over the years to create exquisite furniture that’s beloved by collectors worldwide. Shop a collection of antique and contemporary Knoll chairs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024To tell if a chair is a Parker Knoll, look for the maker's label, usually found under the seat on dining chairs and on the bases or frames on office and accent chairs. Although the company has modified its markings over the years, most pieces will at least state "Parker Knoll.” Many pieces also feature serial numbers. By cross-referencing these numbers with information published on trusted online resources, you can learn about the age, style name and other features of your chair. If you need assistance with identification, seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Shop a collection of Parker Knoll chairs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024To tell if a chair is Parker Knoll, look under the seat. Most Parker Knoll chairs will be marked with the company's logo and a model number. Some may also display the designer's signature. You can cross-reference the model number with information published on trusted online resources to learn more about your chair. If you can't locate a maker's mark or run into other difficulties identifying your chair, consider enlisting the help of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Parker Knoll chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024To tell if a Knoll chair is real, first look for Knoll Furniture markings, usually found under the seat. These labels have varied over the years, but by comparing what's present on your furniture to images of authentic pieces found on trusted online resources produced around the same time, you can spot any inconsistencies that might indicate a replica. Knoll Furniture has sold many different chairs since its founding in 1938. Researching the characteristics of your specific chair can help you identify signs that your piece may be a replica. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can also help with authentication. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Knoll chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024What Florence Knoll called the Womb chair after it was created is unknown. However, its creator Eero Saarinen stated that Knoll inspired him to make the piece by asking him to design the most comfortable chair ever, saying specifically that she wanted something that felt like "a basket full of pillows." Presented with the challenge, Saarinen went primal. What, the designer figured, better signifies the very essence of comfort than the womb? "It was designed on the theory that a great number of people have never really felt comfortable and secure since they left the womb,” the designer said of his chair. Find a selection of vintage Womb chairs on 1stDibs.
- What color goes with red chairs?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The colors that go well with red chairs are golden yellows, rich browns and olive greens. There are also many other colors that work with red chairs including frosty grays to create an icy mix or violet blues if you're looking for more aesthetically pleasing and visually stimulating. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The purpose of the red and blue chair called the Red Blue chair is to provide both physical and spiritual comfort. Its creator, Gerrit Rietveld, believed that the colors and regularly positioned planes brought harmony to rooms. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Red Blue chairs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The Red Blue chair, designed by Gerrit Rietveld, was partially inspired by the chair designs of architect and designer Frank Lloyd Wright. It was also created in the hopes of designing a piece that would be simple to mass produce. Find a collection of Red Blue Chairs on 1stDibs.
