Small Wall Units For Sale on 1stDibs

Find a variety of small wall units available on 1stDibs. Frequently made of wood, hardwood and teak, all small wall units available were constructed with great care. Small wall units have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century. Small wall units are generally popular furniture pieces, but Mid-Century Modern, Scandinavian Modern and Art Deco styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Some small wall units are too large for some spaces — a variety of smaller small wall units, measuring 8.25 inches across, are available at 1stDibs. There have been many well-made small wall units over the years, but those made by Poul Cadovius, Cado and Kai Kristiansen are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much are Small Wall Units?

Small wall units can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $3,500, while the lowest priced sells for $485 and the highest can go for as much as $17,191.

Finding the Right Wall Decorations for You

An empty wall in your home is a blank canvas, and that’s good news. Whether you’ve chosen to arrange a collage of paintings in a hallway or carefully position a handful of wall-mounted sculptures in your dining room, there are a lot of options for beautifying your space with the antique and vintage wall decor and decorations available on 1stDibs.

If you’re seeking inspiration for your wall decor, we’ve got some ideas (and we can show you how to arrange wall art, too).

“I recommend leaving enough space above the piece of furniture to allow for usable workspace and to protect the art from other items damaging it,” says Susana Simonpietri, of Brooklyn home design studio Chango & Co.

Hanging a single attention-grabbing large-scale print or poster over your bar or bar cart can prove intoxicating, but the maximalist approach of a salon-style hang, a practice rooted in 17th-century France, can help showcase works of various shapes, styles and sizes on a single wall or part of a wall.

If you’re planning on creating an accent wall — or just aiming to bring a variety of colors and textures into a bedroom — there is more than one way to decorate with wallpaper. Otherwise, don’t overlook what textiles can introduce to a space. A vintage tapestry can work wonders and will be easy to move when you’ve found that dream apartment in another borough.

Express your taste and personality with the right ornamental touch for the walls of your home or office — find a range of contemporary art, vintage photography, paintings and other wall decor and decorations on 1stDibs now.
