How Much is a Vintage Garden Furniture?
Finding the Right Patio and Garden Furniture for You
Whether you're sitting around a firepit, playing games or enjoying a meal, outdoor furniture is crucial for a successful social gathering.
We’ve come a long way from the rudimentary patio and garden furniture of yore, which, in the Ancient Roman and Greek eras, meant stone slabs. Back then, your grandiose patch of outdoor greenery was a place to relax and admire the manicured hedges and fruit orchards. Fortunately, advancements in the design of outdoor furniture as well as the burgeoning of artisan landscape designers have made it easier to do so since then.
The need for outdoor chairs, tables and benches to withstand varying weather conditions means that many contemporary offerings prioritize durability over form. For a touch of glamour in your garden, antique and vintage pieces from France or Italy, which have already proven they can stand the test of time, can introduce an elegant sensibility to your outdoor space.
In the late 1940s, Hawaii-based architect Walter Lamb began fashioning outdoor furniture from nautical rope and metal tubing rescued from sunken Pearl Harbor ships. Although his designs were originally intended as gifts for returning GIs, his creations gained such popularity that they were picked up by the then-new Brown Jordan furniture company of California.
Lamb’s adventurous creations inspired many designers who followed. The seating and tables crafted by other mid-century furniture makers noted for their seminal patio and garden works — a list that includes Hendrik Van Keppel and Taylor Green, Russell Woodard and Woodard Furniture, Maurizio Tempestini and Richard Schultz — remain highly sought after by collectors today.
Whether it’s wicker couches for your screened porch or wrought-iron armchairs for fireside drinks, find the antique and vintage patio and garden furniture you need to wind down the day or welcome the morning sun on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024Garden furniture is made out of a variety of materials. Cast aluminum, teak, mahogany and wrought iron are some commonly used options. In addition, manufacturers may produce outdoor furniture out of resin and plastic. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of garden furniture from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 26, 2021The best metal garden furniture is really a matter of preference. Durable, comfortable outdoor furniture is critical to your hosting a successful social gathering in the garden or on your patio. When shopping for garden furniture, consider the climate where you live and what kind of weather conditions that you’ll experience over a given year. Certain wood outdoor furniture may lose its finish or warp during a hard winter, and while regular steel garden furniture may corrode if left out in the elements over time, it is largely unaffected by sunlight. Plastic or rubber outdoor furniture will likely be vulnerable to UV damage, however. Find a range of antique and vintage garden furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Whether cast iron garden furniture lasts depends on the quality of the pieces and how well you care for and maintain them over time. Many people choose cast iron, aluminum, wicker or rattan garden furniture for their outdoor patio sets. Shop an assortment of garden furniture on 1stDibs.
- How old is vintage furniture?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019
A piece of furniture must be at least 20 years old to be considered vintage.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The first step in determining if an item is vintage bamboo is to first make sure it’s bamboo. Bamboo is inflexible, so if there are curved shapes in the design it is actually rattan, not bamboo. Your next step is to understand the style of the piece of furniture, the brand, and look for telltale signs that it is an authentic piece from that brand. Shop a range of antique and modern bamboo furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 25, 2019
The difference between vintage and antique furniture is that vintage furniture is at least 20 years old, while antiques must be at least 100 years old to be considered antique.
