How Much are The Wicker Works?
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.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024The difference between wicker and resin wicker comes down to the source of the materials. Genuine or natural wicker is a woven material produced out of rattan, bamboo, reed, willow and similar fibers. Resin wicker is a man-made material composed of polymers. As a result, resin wicker tends to be more resistant to the effects of weather than naturally derived wicker. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of wicker furniture.
- Do humidors work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022If properly cared for, yes, humidors do indeed work. You must remember to have the humidity set correctly. If the climate in the humidor is too moist, your cigar will get moldy, and if it’s too dry, your cigar will crack. On 1stDibs, you can find authentic humidors from some of the top sellers around the world.
- How does a Rolex work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Most Rolex watches work thanks to a perpetual rotor found inside. Every time you move your wrist, this rotor glides back and forth, creating kinetic energy. That energy moves into the mainspring of the watch to power the timepiece, eliminating the need for winding as long as the watch is being worn. You’ll find a large selection of Rolex on 1stDibs.
- What is a working table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021A working table is, simply put, a table where you can work. It is equipped with drawers and holders to hold implements and materials. It can range from a simple flat surface to complex designs. On 1stDibs, you can find the perfect table for your work purposes.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A samovar is a large metal urn that is used to heat and boil water, typically for tea.

- How do fairground mirrors work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Fairground mirrors, also known as funhouse mirrors, use a curved surface in order to distort the image. A convex mirror curves outwards to make you look tall and thin, and a concave mirror will make you look short and wide. Shop a collection of vintage and contemporary fairground mirrors from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- How do chips work in poker?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Chips are used for betting while playing poker. Usually, the white (or light-colored) chips have the lowest value, and the red (or other colored) and blue (or dark-colored) chips increase in increments of five and ten. Players will “buy-in” by purchasing a set amount of chips and bet during play based on the combination of cards they are dealt. Find a selection of vintage poker chip sets on 1stDibs.
- How did old chandeliers work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Old chandeliers first worked because of taper candles inserted into their frames and lit nightly to provide illumination for a room. In the 18th century, chandeliers produced flickering flames fueled by natural gas, butane, propane or a similar substance. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage chandeliers.
- How does a wind-up toy work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How a wind-up toy works relies on a part called a torsion spring. When you turn the knob or key, tension builds up on the torsion spring. When you stop winding, the accumulated energy sets an inner gear in motion that powers the movement of the toy. Find a collection of antique and vintage wind-up toys on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024How Julian Opie does his work is through trial and error. The British artist’s process is one of experimentation. Often, he begins by taking a photograph and then uploading it to a computer, which he then uses to add symbols, signs, shadows and outlines. Then, he adds color and collage to the works, layering elements on top of one another. As he sees what works and what does not, Opie removes, rearranges and edits these layers until he achieves the final result he envisioned. Explore an assortment of Julian Opie art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How a Westminster clock works involves a quartz movement system. It provides the power needed to turn the gears, swing the pendulum and produce the chime melody. Depending on the clock's design and your preferred setting, the chimes may play on the hour, half hour or quarter hour. Find a selection of Westminster clocks on 1stDibs.
- How does an Argand lamp work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021An Argand lamp is a type of oil lamp that was invented back in 1780. To work, the lamp uses a cylindrical cloth wick inside a close-fitting glass chimney that steadies the air flow both inside and outside the wick. Thick oil is used to soak the wick and then light the same to generate light.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021An extendable table is a great way to make use of or save space, as you wish. An extendable table is constructed in a way that the tabletop pulls apart to reveal the center layer as a usable, extendable option. Extendable tables mostly include flaps that click in place to keep from collapsing. Find a variety of tables on 1stDibs.
- How does a wall barometer work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021The Barometer is a scientific instrument used to measure air pressure in a certain environment. The barometer has a flattened metal cylinder that looks like a silver disc inside its construction, which is filled with a partial vacuum. As the pressure in the air increases, the disc gets crushed and as air pressure decreases the disc expands. This movement of the disc is transformed into the reading of the black barometer needle under the glass.
- How does an Astral lamp work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How an Astral lamp works depends on its design. Early models held lamp oil and glowed when you lit an internal wick. The shade on the lamp then directed the light down onto a work surface. After the advent of electricity, the lamps carried electricity through wiring to a bulb screwed into a porcelain socket. The electrical energy heated a filament in the bulb, causing it to glow and produce light. You'll find a range of Astral lamps on 1stDibs.
- How do place cards work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Unlike escort cards which are placed at the entrance of a venue, place cards are arranged at the table so that guests know where they are supposed to sit and who is sitting next to them.
- How does a gas lamp work?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021Gas lamps work by burning fuel like kerosene, propane or white gas to produce heat. It is the heat that causes the mantles to produce light. Gas lamps generally include an ignition valve that is located in the collar of the fixture, allowing you to turn it on or off. Find antique gas lamps and vintage lanterns on 1stDibs.
