Industrial Furniture

INDUSTRIAL STYLE

Industrial floor lamps, bar stools, desks and other industrial-style furnishings have experienced a resurgence in popularity with the rise of interest in minimalist design.

It's a look that celebrates the past even as it suggests vigor, productivity and brawn. The newly chic industrial style of decor repurposes the simple, sturdy furniture of an earlier world of commerce — brushed-metal storage cabinets and display shelves, task lamps and pendant lights with enameled shades, work tables with worn wooden tops and cast-iron bases — and couples them with aesthetic touches emblematic of energy and optimism, from bright upholstery fabrics to flowers.

The rise in prominence of the industrial style has come hand-in-hand with the residential repurposing of former manufacturing and warehouse districts throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. In many loft apartments created in shuttered factories, the architectural envelope has been left intact.

Industrial-style interiors feature elements like raw brick walls, exposed steel beams and oak floors whose history is written in every pit and gouge. Iron and glass transom windows give definition and interest to small kitchen areas anchored by kitchen islands made of marble, steel and brass, while taxidermy or vintage neon signs serve as wall art in living rooms dotted with leather club chairs. Patina is the keynote to a decor in sync with such surroundings. 

On 1stDibs you will find industrial furniture designs that wear their age beautifully — and were built to last.

Modern Industrial Hall Table by Peter Harrison in Black Wood with Metal Brackets
Located in Middle Grove, NY
This table continues my exploration of the power of wooden line-like elements and industrial metal bracketry. It introduces the concept of a 45 degree line contrasting against its six vertical legs. The top is punctuated by three polished stainless bolts- one over each leg structure. The brackets are machined out of 1/8" thick aluminum and attach with stainless steel hardware. It’s a bold and powerful table. This listing is for a made to order table...

Antique Columbia Penny Scale, Coin Operated
By Columbia Weighing Machine Company 1
Located in Peekskill, NY
This is a wonderful piece of Americana! It’s an authentic penny scale that were often used at drug stores during the last part of the 1800s-circa 1920s. It's a large floor model penny scale from circa 1920s. This scale was made by the Columbia Weighing Machine Co. NY. It measures 70 1/2 inches tall by 16 1/2 inches wide and the bottom portion is 27 inches from front to back. Sides are made of wood, the bottom portion where you stand is made of porcelain with mozaic tiles, and there are two mirrored sections on the front of the scale. Scale is in working order but needs an adjustment or I've finally lost a few pounds. The Columbia Weighing Machine Company was founded in Pittsburgh in 1902. Ten years later they moved to the Bronx NY. The company started making coin operated scales...
