What types of vintage furniture can you find on Etsy?

Explore the shops on Etsy to discover eye-catching vintage home and living pieces for all your favorite spaces. There are plenty of different types to choose from based on the era in which they were made. Mid-century modern: This iconic furniture type boasts angular designs, clean lines, and a mixture of materials like wood and metal or Lucite and velvet for a space-age-inspired look. Vintage mid-century furniture adds a dramatic element to your home while giving it a touch of classic retro style that transports you back to the atomic era. Victorian: Designed in the late 19th century, Victorian furniture is constructed of sturdy hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. Typical features include dark finishes, ornate carvings and details, and touches of marble for a sophisticated finish. Art Deco: Characterized by shimmering metallics, geometric shapes, colorful lacquer finishes, and smooth curves, Art Deco furniture adds dramatic visual interest to your home. Look for vintage bedroom furniture in a unique Art Deco design with a bold print or silhouette to make your sleeping space truly unique. Colonial: This vintage furniture type focuses on functionality rather than design and is commonly constructed of American wood species like oak, maple, or walnut. Colonial furniture is a popular choice for traditional home designs. Arts and crafts: Also called mission-style furniture, these vintage pieces commonly feature a combination of classic materials like wood and leather. This type of furniture has a utilitarian aesthetic, and many of its most popular designs were inspired by the works of the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Scandinavian: This furniture was also called “Scandinavian contemporary” and became popular between 1930 and 1950. Minimalist shapes, simple designs, and functionality make Scandinavian furniture a great option if you want to curate a clean and modern space without too many extra colors or intricate details.

"An absolutely beautiful shelf! Most of my wood furniture is "caramel" colored and the cherry color option matches perfectly! The seller was very communicative and proactively let me know that there would be a delay in making and shipping my item due to its popularity. 5/5 would purchase again!"

"SO HAPPY w this purchase! Paul was kind, personable and responsive to all my q’s! Totally thought this may be a scam bc the shop is so new, but it’s legit! And it’s great! I’d been searching for months trying to achieve our litter box dreams… 1. Find a cool piece of furniture that would fit a jumbo box w tall sides. 2. Furniture needed some type of feet. This has a tiny bit of lift. 3. We needed a lead-out to try and catch stray litter when they exit the box. This has one! Best of all- it’s hidden! Note: My cats still get a bit of litter outside of it, but tbh I think it’s impossible not to w any piece. They’re cats. 4. Conceals smells. 5. It wouldn’t be gross to be functional for other purposes. This is totally solid to sit on! 6. High quality. This fit the bill beautifully and is worth the investment. Do it! Thanks, Paul!"

Learn More About Vintage Furniture

Vintage furniture is defined as any piece of furniture that is 20 years old or older, and some experts classify furniture that’s 100 years old or older as antique rather than vintage. This classic furniture comes in a plethora of styles, and it looks fabulous when paired next to newer designs, or when you furnish an entire room with just all vintage pieces alone.

Whatever your favorite design style is, vintage furniture adds a fun, unique component to any room. Most vintage furniture is crafted of materials like solid hardwood, but it could also include other elements like shimmering metal, clear acrylic, or luscious velvet. Newer pieces that were made between the ‘50s to the ‘80s are sometimes called “retro” as another term for vintage pieces.

Explore the shops on Etsy to discover eye-catching vintage home and living pieces for all your favorite spaces. There are plenty of different types to choose from based on the era in which they were made.

If you’re enamored with a certain style, you can furnish your entire home or an entire room with furniture from one specific era. However, pairing vintage furnishings alongside newer designs is also a great way to give your space a unique touch.

Mix a curvy carved wooden cabinet with a sleek sofa that has clean, straight lines to create a contrast of shapes and silhouettes. Pair a piece of vintage rattan furniture like a comfy peacock chair with a sturdy glass side table for a juxtaposition of styles that adds visual interest to a sunroom or living space.

Upholstery like velvet and leather blend beautifully with more rigid textures like bamboo or vintage wicker furniture. Add an Art Deco bookshelf to your living room or home office or place a mid-century modern accent chair with tapered legs next to a brand-new industrial-style coffee table.

Styling vintage furniture isn’t just about the overall design. You can also mix and match colors and materials to create a fun visual contrast. Pick out an awesome vintage sofa and update it with accents like new throw pillows in a funky pattern or color scheme. Decorate vintage shelves and cabinets with unique pieces like artistic sculptures, a terra cotta vase, or a stack of books topped with a large glass candleholder. Blend organic elements with sleek designs to give your home a dramatic touch. A large clay planter with a tropical plant looks fantastic beside a modern floor lamp or on top of a side table made of glass and metal.

Some furniture may be “vintage-inspired,” but that doesn’t mean that it’s authentic or that it was actually made during a specific era. Check the furniture carefully and look for stamps, labels, or manufacturing tags. These details will tell you when and where a specific piece of furniture was made. Most older furniture companies and makers listed their name, location, and year of production somewhere on the piece. If you don’t see the information right away, flip the furniture upside down and look underneath. Stamps or tags were often added on the bottom of wood pieces, on the backside, or inside of a drawer.
