Choose from an assortment of styles, material and more with respect to the sofa a chair suite you’re looking for at 1stDibs. Each sofa a chair suite for sale was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, fabric and animal skin. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect sofa a chair suite — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century are available. When you’re browsing for the right sofa a chair suite, those designed in Art Deco, Mid-Century Modern and Scandinavian Modern styles are of considerable interest. You’ll likely find more than one sofa a chair suite that is appealing in its simplicity, but Frem Røjle, M.F. Harty and P. Jeppesens Møbelfabrik produced versions that are worth a look.

How Much is a Sofa A Chair Suite?

The average selling price for a sofa a chair suite at 1stDibs is $5,200, while they’re typically $1,269 on the low end and $20,527 for the highest priced.

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 Sofa A Chair Suite
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021
    Also known as living room suites or a three-piece suite, sofa suites are usually sofas with two matching chairs. On 1stDibs you will find a variety of options for antique, new and vintage sofa suites.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    By the strictest definition, a sofa is not a chair. Generally, a chair is a seating solution for one person. Since a sofa seats more than one person at a time, it usually isn't considered a chair. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary chairs and sofas.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A sofa chair is an armchair. This single seater chair often pairs with a sofa.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Yes, a sofa and chair can match. The choice to match a sofa and chairs is really a matter of preference. General design wisdom recommends against matching your sofa and chairs, however. Juxtaposition can create an interesting sense of diversity in your space — express yourself with a provocative mix of sizes and profiles. Find all kinds of sofas and chairs on 1stDibs to get started.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023
    Yes, an accent chair can be lower than a sofa. For example, you may place a low slipper chair beside a taller sofa in your seating area. To create a balanced look, limit the height difference between your sofa and accent chairs to no more than four inches. Find a large selection of accent chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    You can match sofas and accent chairs in a few different ways. One option is to choose sofas and chairs in similar solid colors. Alternatively, you can select a sofa in the primary color of your palette and accent chairs in the secondary hue. Another approach is to pair a patterned sofa with solid-colored accent chairs or vice versa. Find a large selection of sofas and accent chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    No, your accent chair doesn't have to match your sofa, but many people choose to coordinate them. This means you don't have to purchase matching chairs with your sofa or choose chairs in identical upholstery. Accent chairs and sofas can coordinate if they show off similar colors or materials, giving you the freedom to mix and match. Explore a variety of accent chairs and sofas on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021
    A single sofa chair is often called a loveseat, which is larger than a typical armchair, but still too small for more than one person. Browse a collection of loveseats today on 1stDibs.
