Tubular Patio Furniture For Sale on 1stDibs

Choose from an assortment of styles, material and more in our collection of tubular patio furniture on 1stDibs. Was constructed with extraordinary care, often using metal, bronze and fabric. There are many kinds of the piece of tubular patio furniture you’re looking for, from those produced as long ago as the 20th Century to those made as recently as the 20th Century. An item from our selection of tubular patio furniture, designed in the Mid-Century Modern or Modern style, is generally a popular piece of furniture. Many designers have produced at least one well-made choice in our collection of tubular patio furniture over the years, but those crafted by Brown Jordan, Walter Lamb and Kipp Stewart are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much is a Tubular Patio Furniture?

Prices for a piece of tubular patio furniture can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, they begin at $295 and can go as high as $8,000, while the average can fetch as much as $1,775.

Finding the Right Building and Garden Elements for You

Choosing the right antique or vintage building and garden elements can prove pivotal when you’re working to beautify any room in your home or just put the finishing touches on a garden or other outdoor area.

It takes time and effort to improve your outdoor space or merely to bring an air of tranquility to an indoor area set aside for private relaxation or gathering with friends. The good news is that 1stDibs can help.

To introduce a sense of timelessness to a back patio or interior common area, choose cast-stone statues or sculptural busts for a dose of drama or select ornate architectural elements such as corbels, plaques or panels made of marble or iron. Elsewhere, find a focal point in your living room and create a “feature wall” by bringing pops of color into a corner with handmade antique ceramic tiles.

It helps when design changes like these have a practical upside too.

Victorian cast-iron stair treads hearken back to a time when adding decorative details to your property was a priority. While lending an attractive appearance to an exterior staircase, these safeguards render the steps slip-resistant for those coming and going. And as one good stylistic choice usually leads to another, pairing your sophisticated treads with a coupling of 19th-century hand-forged andirons would be a thoughtful, durable touch for any courtyard or comfortable lounge space, be they intended for an indoor fireplace or a patio firepit.

Where the garden is concerned, any sophisticated garden ornaments you select should work with nature, not against it. Wrought-iron garden gates will simply refuse to be relegated to the background. Instead, they’ll draw attention to your painstakingly sculpted hedges and colorful flora. When paired with a sparse arrangement of other tasteful additions, such as a stone planter, garden stool or other welcoming pieces of outdoor seating, the effect can be transformative.

On 1stDibs, find a sprawling collection of antique garden furniture and architectural elements that meet every need. Our offerings include everything from sculptural bathroom fixtures to flooring ideas to pedestals and columns designed in a variety of styles and much more.

Questions About Tubular Patio Furniture
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

    To protect patio furniture, clean it often, treat the fabric, wood and metal with weather-proofing coatings, and store it inside during bad weather or, if you don’t have the space, use an outdoor furniture cover.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Patio furniture can be more expensive than other types of furniture because it's designed and crafted to withstand harsher conditions. The materials designers use to make outdoor furniture—woods, synthetics, metals and durable fabrics—are more expensive to source than other types of materials.
  • Automaton

    The best color for patio furniture greatly depends on your style and color scheme, however one aspect to always consider is how much UV will the furniture receive. If it is completely uncovered most items will fade over time, and brighter colors will fade the most. White is a popular color for that reason, and so are natural finishes. Two highly popular and sought-after patio furniture designs are the Richard Schultz for Knoll collection which predominantly comes in white to avoid sun fading. And the other is Walter Lamb for Brown Jordan as the copper frames develop a beautiful bluish green patina color which continues to develop over the years resulting in furniture that actually gets better over time, just like a fine wine.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    To identify vintage patio furniture, start with the maker's markings. You will usually find stamps, tags or labels with the maker's name in hidden places, such as under seats and tabletops. By comparing the marking with images shared by trusted online resources, you can learn who produced your patio furniture. Then, you can continue your research to find out more about the style name, year of production and other characteristics. Typically, patio furniture must be at least 20 years old and no more than 99 years old to be categorized as vintage. For help with the identification process, turn to a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Find a large collection of vintage patio furniture on 1stDibs.

    Whether it's okay for patio furniture to get wet depends on the piece. Manufacturers often specify whether furniture is for outdoor or covered outdoor use. A true outdoor piece usually features materials that can withstand the effects of weather, including rain and sun exposure. Furniture designed for covered outdoor use may need to be kept dry to preserve it over time. Refer to the care instructions included with your furniture to find out if a particular item can safely get wet. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of patio furniture.

    To identify vintage Woodard patio furniture, look for the maker's markings. On three-piece sets, you'll typically find paper labels that bear the brand name underneath the cushions. Sofa and chair frames may also feature welded-on metal labels bearing the brand name. For wrought iron pieces, check the frame for an embossed "Woodard" mark. Once you find the markings, you can use trusted online resources to determine a rough idea of the age of your piece. Anything produced more than 20 years ago, but less than a century ago, is vintage. Pieces more than 100 years old are antique, while those made within the last two decades are contemporary. If you're unable to locate any markings, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can assist you with identification and dating. On 1stDibs, explore an assortment of Woodard furniture.
