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 Seats From Space
- What is space age furniture?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Space age furniture relates to furniture produced during the 1960s that was influenced by science fiction and the Space Race. Examples include Joe Colombo's KD29 lamp, Eero Aarnio's Ball Chair and Poul M. Volther's Corona Chair. Shop a selection of space age furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024The element of space in art is how different parts of a work of art are arranged within the piece. How far apart different parts of a work are from one another helps define space. In addition, how much of the canvas, paper or other surface remains unadorned contributes to the space for two-dimensional works. For three-dimensional art, like sculptures, space also refers to how much of the exhibition area a piece takes up and how it interacts with other elements of the area, such as lighting. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of fine art.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021A good spacing for coat hooks depends on personal preferences and existing space. Ideally, there should be at least 8 to 12 inches between each coat hook so that the clothes have enough breathing space. Shop for antique and vintage coat hooks on 1stDibs.
- What is Tandem seating?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Tandem seating is a style of seating featuring a series of chairs attached to each other, side by side.

On 1stDibs, shop a selection of cantilever chairs.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023Whether a glass table is better for small spaces is largely a matter of personal opinion.

- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
A dining table should have a minimum of 30 to 36 inches of clearance around it.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Round dining tables are great for increasing space and improving flow. Because there are no corners on a round table, it is easier to avoid bumping or crowding when trying to sit.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021The best shape table for a small space is a square shaped table.
