Used Pillows For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of used pillows is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique used pillows was constructed with extraordinary care, often using fabric, cotton and wool. Used pillows have been produced for many years, with earlier versions available from the 18th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 21st Century. Used pillows made by Mid-Century Modern designers — as well as those associated with Baroque — are very popular at 1stDibs. Many used pillows are appealing in their simplicity, but antique textiles galleries, Atelier Lam and Simeona Leona produced popular used pillows that are worth a look.

Finding the Right Pillows And Throws for You

Today, vintage pillows and throws are staples in interior decorating, especially in living rooms, bedrooms and guest rooms.

If eyes are the windows to the soul, then decorative pillows are the windows to the design aesthetic of one’s dreams. “They can be showpieces that are the last, final touch to an interior, like a jewel,” says Irish cushion designer Katie Larmour.

The use of pillows dates back thousands of years. However, the earliest examples were not the soft pillows of today as Mesopotamians and ancient Egyptians used headrests made of stone. Softer pillows became popular with the Romans and Greeks.

Contemporary, designer and vintage pillows and throws can tie in design elements from all parts of a room to contribute to a more cohesive aesthetic. Whether they incorporate the colors of the room’s curtains or rug, echo the room’s paint color or act as an accent on their own, pillows and throws fill up a space and create a cozy and put-together appearance.

There are throws and pillows to complement any design style. Whether seeking out intricately patterned mid-century modern pillows, simple designs or tribal-style wool pillows, 1stDibs has something for every home or collection.
