Retro Wall Decoration For Sale on 1stDibs

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal retro wall decoration for your home. Frequently made of paper, fabric and wood, every retro wall decoration was constructed with great care. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect retro wall decoration — we have versions that date back to the 20th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century are available. A retro wall decoration made by Mid-Century Modern designers — as well as those associated with Modern — is very popular. A well-made retro wall decoration has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by Curtis Jere, Peter Keil and Josef Albers are consistently popular.

How Much is a Retro Wall Decoration?

A retro wall decoration can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price 1stDibs is $1,500, while the lowest priced sells for $1 and the highest can go for as much as $650,000.

Finding the Right Wall-decorations for You

An empty wall in your home is a blank canvas, and that’s good news. Whether you’ve chosen to arrange a collage of paintings in a hallway or carefully position a handful of wall-mounted sculptures in your dining room, there are a lot of options for beautifying your space with the antique and vintage wall decor and decorations available on 1stDibs.

If you’re seeking inspiration for your wall decor, we’ve got some ideas (and we can show you how to arrange wall art, too).

“I recommend leaving enough space above the piece of furniture to allow for usable workspace and to protect the art from other items damaging it,” says Susana Simonpietri, of Brooklyn home design studio Chango Co.

Hanging a single attention-grabbing large-scale print or poster over your bar or bar cart can prove intoxicating, but the maximalist approach of a salon-style hang, a practice rooted in 17th-century France, can help showcase works of various shapes, styles and sizes on a single wall or part of a wall.

If you’re planning on creating an accent wall — or just aiming to bring a variety of colors and textures into a bedroom — there is more than one way to decorate with wallpaper. Otherwise, don’t overlook what textiles can introduce to a space. A vintage tapestry can work wonders and will be easy to move when you’ve found that dream apartment in another borough.

Express your taste and personality with the right ornamental touch for the walls of your home or office — find a range of contemporary art, vintage photography, paintings and other wall decor and decorations on 1stDibs now.
