How Much are Diamond Chairs?

Finding the Right Seating for You

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.

No matter your style, the collection of unique chairs, sofas and other seating on 1stDibs is surely worthy of a standing ovation.

Questions About Diamond Chairs

    The diamond chair was made using welded steel with rods in either chrome or bonded rilsan. The chair was scratch, chip, and chemical resistant. You can shop a selection of Bertoia Diamond chairs from some of the world’s top enthusiasts on 1stDibs.

    Italian-American designer Harry Bertoia made the Diamond chair in 1952, and his design went into production in 1983. The original chair featured a woven steel wire back with angled wings resting on angled wire legs. Find a collection of Harry Bertoia Diamond chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 6, 2024
    The Bertoia Diamond chair's weight varies depending on its upholstery. However, the uncovered wire frame weighs around 9 kilograms, or 19.8 pounds. Part of the iconic lounge chair's appeal is its lightweight design, which makes it easy to move around outdoor spaces. Shop a selection of Harry Bertoia Diamond chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    To tell if a Bertoia Diamond chair is real, examine its details closely. First, look at the corners of the backrest on the wire frame. An authentic chair will have gently rounded corners, so sharp points or rough areas may indicate a replica. Next, measure the dowels that form the base. Genuine chairs have dowels that are exactly 0.5 inches in diameter. Reproductions tend to feature significantly thicker dowels. If you're still uncertain about authenticity, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can assist you. Find a collection of Bertoia Diamond chairs on 1stDibs.
