Antique Japanese Ink Painting Curtain/Wabi-Sabi Tapestry/1868-1920
Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
This is an old Japanese noren curtain. It is believed to be made from a traditional Japanese fabric called asa or basho, made from banana leaf fibers. Noren curtains were originally hung at the entrances of shops and homes, gently blocking outside views and breezes while also conveying a sense of the presence of people and the changing seasons, a presence born from Japan's unique lifestyle and culture. More than simply a room divider, noren curtains also quietly convey the aesthetic sense of the people and businesses that inhabit them. The greatest appeal of this work lies in the ink paintings executed on the fabric. The moon, bamboo grass, rocks, and flowing river are depicted, making ample use of the white space, creating a tranquil worldview reminiscent of Chinese and Japanese landscape paintings. However, the depiction is by no means verbose; the bamboo grass is depicted with minimal, omitted lines, and the river is not depicted in full, leaving it to the viewer's imagination. In the center, a full moon is depicted only as an outline, and its understated depiction evokes a sense of transience and lingering beauty. A two-character signature can be seen in the corner of the painting, but details about the artist are unknown. However, noren curtains painted directly onto them in ink like this are extremely rare, and I have only seen them a few times before. I think it is particularly noteworthy that such poetic, highly refined pictorial expression has been applied to a noren curtain, which is supposed to be a practical item. Over the years, the entire fabric has taken on a slight brownish tinge, taking on the depth and tranquility that only comes with aging. This color blends with the pale ink colors of the ink, quietly blending into the space without making a strong statement. It pairs particularly well with white walls, and I highly recommend using it not only as a noren curtain, but also hanging it on the wall like a tapestry for viewing. I believe that just hanging one in a space will bring a sense of dignified space and the depth of time. Size & Specifications Cloth Width: Approx. 87.5 cm Height: Approx. 150.5 cm Cloth Thickness: Very thin (approx. 0.05 mm; exact measurements not taken) Top Bamboo Rod Length: Approx. 98.5 cm Item Number OB314 It's impossible to say when we'll ever be able to find another antique noren...

Dutch Art Deco The Hague School solid oak accent table, 1920s
Located in EVERDINGEN, NL
A sculptural and beautifully crafted Haagse School side table in solid oak, dating from the 1920s. This compact yet architectural piece embodies the movement’s emphasis on structural clarity, honest materials, and refined geometric form. The circular top rests on four tapering supports that create a rhythmic verticality, grounded by round lower shelf, giving the piece a functional elegance. Compact yet visually strong, it works beautifully as a side table, accent table, or plant stand, and stands out with its sculptural Mission-style silhouette. Recently lightly restored, the surface is in excellent condition - the oak shows a warm even patina and woodgrain, the piece is stable and sturdy. Small in footprint, but notably weighty. A superb example of Dutch interwar modernism, where craftsmanship meets disciplined form, and the material itself becomes ornament. ''Haagse School'' furniture manufacturing was centered in the city of The Hague with its rather affluent clientele. In the 1920s, a style of architecture and furniture design emerged in The Hague that would become known as The Hague School. More sober than the imaginative Amsterdam School and more elegant and luxurious than De Stij...

Shop Unique Furniture on 1stDibs

When it comes to shopping for vintage, new and antique furniture — whether you’re finally moving into that long-coveted loft apartment, ranch-style home, townhouse or furnishing your weekend house on the lake — you should think of your home as a stage for the seating, tables, lighting, storage cabinets and other pieces that best match your personality.

Coziness, comfort and creating a welcoming space are among the important things to consider when buying furniture, whether that means seeking strict cohesion or rooms characterized by a mix-and-match assembly of varying shapes, colors and materials. And for those who now work from home, exercise, eat and relax within the same four walls every day, they’ll also want to think about flexibility and an innovative approach.

Have you built your dream kitchen?

Is your current living-room furniture all that it could be?

Does your toast-worthy bar or vintage bar cart exude equal parts class and cheeriness?

And importantly, is your home officebackyard or otherwise — a happy one, regardless of the design style you happen to gravitate toward?

Although mid-century modern, rustic, minimalist, Art Deco and contemporary looks remain popular, they aren’t the only styles available to design connoisseurs.

Furniture styles are nothing if not fluid, meaning what’s popular one year may not be the next. That’s why it’s crucial to not only pay attention to interior-design trends but also focus on the styles that speak to you. That way, you (and your interior designer, if that is in the plans) can work to create a home that’s entirely your own, complete with impressively modern decor as well as an array of history’s universally renowned iconic designs.

It’s difficult to single out well-recognized designs from what is a crowded pantheon of celebrated and seminal furnishings. Certain outstanding designs have such stellar quality they’ve endured for decades as bona fide cultural treasures, still being manufactured, in many cases, by the same venerable companies that shepherded them into being (think Herman Miller, Knoll and Fritz Hansen). Some works come immediately to mind as contenders for any short list. When you’re discussing the most popular mid-century modern chairs, for example, no tally would be complete without citing designs by Arne Jacobsen, Charlotte Perriand, Charles and Ray Eames and Hans Wegner.

Good furniture, be it authentic vintage furniture or new custom furniture, allows you to comfortably sit and tell your favorite stories. Great furniture tells a story of its own.

On 1stDibs, find everything from sofas to serveware to credenzas to coffee tables, and every other type of antique, vintage and new furniture you need to create a singular space that you’ll be proud to call home.
