- 1stDibs ExpertApril 3, 2024The difference between a davenport and a couch comes down to special features. A couch or sofa is an upholstered piece of furniture designed to seat two or more people, while a davenport is a large couch or sofa that can be used as a bed or one that folds out into a bed.
A couch is occasionally called a davenport when the furnishing in question is a large comfortable sofa that can double as a bed or can be converted into a bed. The name comes from a now-defunct New England furniture manufacturer, A.H. Davenport & Company, which was established in Cambridge, Massachusetts in the late 19th century. Davenport furnished the homes of the richest Americans during what we now call the Gilded Age.
In the 1880s, thanks largely to the Industrial Revolution, the American economy started booming, and when it did, it created a whole new supply of millionaires. Firms like the Duveen Brothers supplied these families with European decor, and manufacturers such as A.H. Davenport & Company furnished their mansions. The term davenport became a synonym for any sofa that looked like the one produced by the popular Massachusetts company.
Find vintage sofas and sofa beds on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024There is no single longest-lasting couch. Many makers produce couches capable of standing the test of time when cared for properly. Generally, some signs of a durable couch include quality full-grain or top-grain leather upholstery, sturdy frame construction and high-quality fill such as spring systems or high-density premium foams. Explore a diverse assortment of couches on 1stDibs.
- What is a Moroccan couch called?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Moroccan style furniture is sometimes called souk style furniture. Souk-style furniture is known for being low to the ground with colorful, overstuffed upholstered pieces, such as ottomans and poufs. Browse a wide selection of souk-style furniture on 1stDibs.
- What is a single couch called?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A single couch may also be called a settee. It is a long seat made for more than one person. Settees are typically small seats that can fit two or more people, but they aren’t as wide as couches or sofas. A settee is more intimate and offers more sitting room than an armchair. Settees often have a backrest for optimal support and are frequently upholstered. On 1stDibs, shop a range of antique and vintage sofas and settees today.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022When pillows are attached to a couch, the couch is termed a tight back design. The decorative pillows that are not attached to a sofa, and may not even come with them, are referred to as throw pillows. Shop a collection of vintage and new throw pillows from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
