Vintage, New and Antique Linen Presses
A vintage, new or antique linen press is a great way to prevent wrinkles while storing linens in a space that will remain dry.
Linen presses are a type of storage cabinet used to store domestic linens such as bedsheets, napkins and tablecloths. Early models had storage space as well as a pressing device, with some also having features that aired the linens. The purpose of these linen presses was to protect and care for valuable textiles.
These cupboards were popular from the 17th century to the 19th century in Europe and the United States, after which more modern options, like wardrobes and ironing boards, were widely adopted.
Early linen presses were often very simple, but over the years they became more complex and ornate with carved wooden details. As they frequently borrow elements from cupboards and wardrobes, linen presses are perfect for adding storage space to a home. Some can display decorative objects like dinnerware while storing sheets and other linen essentials in drawers.
While they have a practical purpose, linen presses can set the tone for a room especially because their large size makes them a focal point. Some have rustic looks, others have polished wood surfaces that reflect light, making a room seem brighter.
On 1stDibs, a range of vintage, new and antique linen presses can be found for anyone in need of a storage solution. They range from mid-century modern linen presses with angular lines, practical features and symmetrical shapes to Rococo pieces with soft lines, carved elements and delicate details.
