Rare Pair of Early Hans Wegner for Carl Hansen Wing Chairs
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
We have for sale a stunning pair of original, early wing chairs, designed by Hans J. Wegner for Carl Hansen. These chairs are a perfect addition to any modern or contemporary living space, offering both timeless style and comfort.
The design of the chairs is based on the OX chair base, which is well-known for its stability and durability. However, these chairs have a sleeker and more refined look, making them stand out as a unique piece of furniture. The angles of the chairs are similar to those of the OX chair, but the overall design is more streamlined, giving them a modern and sophisticated appearance.
The chairs are in good condition, with solid construction this makes them an excellent choice for those who are looking for a high-quality piece of furniture that will last for years to come.

Rex Posture Support Leather Armchair by FSM
By De Sede
Located in Brooklyn, NY
FSM Rex chair by De Sede. The armchair Rex revolutionizes the act of sitting. Like the De Sede model DS-343, the armchair Rex is based on a patented seat study developed over the last two decades by seat expert and physical therapist Bart Van der Heyden. Rex is an armchair that moves with the movements of the person seated. Changes in posture are not just permitted but even encouraged. The armchair presents itself in a novel architecture. The seat shell does not stop at the backrest as usual but extends to pelvis height instead. This is not only a stylish design element but the elementary basis for this sitting revolution. With the extended seat shell, the person seated assumes a different posture when leaning back: if you lean backwards, only the upper part of the backrest moves backwards. Following the movements of the body, this provides gentle support to the spine and the chest opens automatically. The person seated immediately feels a more open posture, which is accompanied by a freedom of sitting.
Details:
Standard configuration: Substructure coated in silk-grey. Mechanism resistance low.
Upholstery and assembly: SEDEX upholstery with SEDE-Lux padding. High-quality strap suspension. Seat, back and armrest with supporting metal structure and integrated gas pressure spring suspension. Thread color tone on tone.
Function: Shifts in weight adapt the seat and backrest inclination to the respective sitting position. This prevents the typical shearing forces. Armchair rotatable 360°. Headrest infinitely forward-adjustable. Mechanism resistance low or, on request, mechanism resistance strong (better for very large and/or heavy persons).
Substructure: Coated in silk-grey or coated in black-grey on request. Available with coating in different color on request for a surcharge. High-gloss chrome-plated on request for a surcharge. Star base with glides for hard and soft floor coverings.
Note: Lumbar support based on the latest ergonomic/medical knowledge. Loosely covered...

Triple Strand Rattan Sofa & Chair Orange Fabric Cushions Style Heywood Wakefield
Located in Topeka, KS
Wonderful vintage triple strand rattan sofa and chair in the style of Heywood Wakefield with zippered orange nubby fabric and original foam filled cushions. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. There are a couple of stains on the spring covers. It has been vacuumed, the frames have been cleaned and a coat of amber sealer. The fabric and cushions are in wonderful condition but there is a “crispy” sound to them. It is not the cushions but a backing on the fabric. Some may want to recover. Priced accordingly. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections.

Antique and Vintage Lounge Chairs for Sale: Wassily Chairs, Eames Chairs and Other Celebrated Seats
While this specific seating is known to all for its comfort and familiar form, the history of how your favorite antique or vintage lounge chair came to be is slightly more ambiguous.
Although there are rare armchairs dating back as far as the 17th century, some believe that the origins of the first official “lounge chair” are tied to Hungarian modernist designer-architect Marcel Breuer. Sure, Breuer wasn’t exactly reinventing the wheel when he introduced the Wassily lounge chair in 1925, but his seat was indeed revolutionary for its integration of bent tubular steel.
Officially, a lounge chair is simply defined as a “comfortable armchair,” which allows for the shape and material of the furnishings to be extremely diverse. Whether or not chaise longues make the cut for this category is a matter of frequent debate.
The Eames lounge chair, on the other hand, has come to define somewhat of a universal perception of what a lounge chair can be. Introduced in 1956, the Eames lounger (and its partner in cozy, the ottoman) quickly became staples in television shows, prestigious office buildings and sumptuous living rooms. Venerable American mid-century modern designers Charles and Ray Eames intended for it to be the peak of luxury, which they knew meant taking furniture to the next level of style and comfort. Their chair inspired many modern interpretations of the lounge — as well as numerous copies.
On 1stDibs, find a broad range of unique lounge chairs that includes everything from antique Victorian-era seating to vintage mid-century modern lounge chairs by craftspersons such as Hans Wegner to contemporary choices from today’s innovative designers.
