Michael Taylor/Schiaparelli Sofa, 96"long, custom Greek Key Base
Located in San Francisco, CA
Elsa Schiaparelli was born in 1890 in the Corsini palace in Rome. With a father who was the director of the Lincei Library and a professor of Oriental literature, an astronomer uncle and a mother descended from the Medici's, she grew up in a family of aristocrats and intellectuals. She studied philosophy, even though her dream was to become an actress. In 1911 she published a collection of overtly sensual poems, Arethusa. When her parents learned about it, she was sent to a convent in Switzerland, where she left again after going on a hunger strike. 1913 marked the year of her emancipation. She set off for London. this city proved to be the beginning of freedom. She met count Wilhelm Wendt de Kerlor, and they married in 1914. They left London for New York in 1916. In 1922 she moved to Paris. During the day, Elsa worked at an antique dealers. In the evening she frequented the famous restaurant, Le Boef su le Toit, which attracted the Paris smart set. Her circle of artist friends grew. After meeting Paul Poiret, the greatest couturier of the time, she tried on a few designs, but could not afford such pieces. The experience of couture, luxury, quality, design, colors, materials, embroidery and shapes lit a spark in Elsa, that would prove to be one of the turning points of her life. She surrounded herself with the best creative talents: Elsa Triolet, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Schlumberger, Meret Oppenheim, Jean-Michel Frank Jean Dunand, Jean Clement and Raymond Peyent. All influenced her designs. In the 1950's Elsa designed the iconic Schiaparelli sofa...

Unique Chairs, Sofas and Other Seating for Sale on 1stDibs

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.
