Comfortable, alluring and on-trend, this cloud chair makes a welcome addition to any home with a complementary or maximalist interior theme. Given this is a vintage armchair that has been reimagined by ebtd, it also means you can create a look that is uniquely yours.

This curvy chair was produced by reputable furniture makers Bulo of Belgium in the late twentieth century. It has been re-upholstered in sea-green bouclé to return it to excellent vintage condition.

Why we love it

Tall, Dark and well-proportioned. That's the saying, right?

A little more sophisticated than our usual finds, we fell for this little bloke when we found him in Belgium. 

Perfect for occasional seating, especially if you want to brood or assert dominance.  

This is a full leather arrangement. Know that there are sings of wear. Many would describe it as a rich patina but that’s a call we’ll allow you to make.

This vintage occasional chair with caning introduces Scandinavian modern to your set up.

Striking in its simplicity, this mid century armchair can be added to virtually any room. The lighter hues of the wood and the open-sided design mean this retro side chair can also fit seamlessly into even the most modest of homes.

Comfortable, affordable and built to last, this Scandinavian accent chair offers excellent value for money. It shows signs of wear commensurate with age but remains in very good vintage condition.

The Plona folding chair introduces the best of industrial furniture design to your home.

The Castelli Plona features the same economy that made the Plia foldaway chair a worldwide success. A sunken seat, however, negates the need for a backrest so this retro office chair/ accent chair is even more striking and compact.

Created in the late 1970s by Giancarlo Piretti, these vintage metal chairs are exhibited in the MOMA. This item shows signs of wear consistent with age but remains in very good vintage condition.

Why we love it:

We can’t be certain, but we have a feeling this vintage sofa was in Scarface. Okay, so we don’t actually have that feeling but we can picture it. This B&B Italia lounge presents 80’s excess but in a way that is very current.

The Baisity couch also boasts some unique design features. For example, the front is raised on castors, the back is lower than the front and it has floating arms at either end. All in all, it’s a strong look.

If you didn’t know, B&B Italia are a big deal in the design world. We know they made it because their logo is all over it. Nothing is a guarantee of quality but this comes close.

The sofa has been re-upholstered in a chunky check, but we've left the arms in the original leather and the floating B&B cushions to match.

The Kartell 4870 stacking chair brings colour, durability and space-saving design to your home.

The 4870 chair is built around how we handle stackable chairs. Two cutaways in the seat make these lightweight retro chairs easy to lift and safe to stack; a handle in the seat-back makes moving them effortless; removable legs mean you have options when it comes to storage; their plastic construction means they can withstand the rigours of extensive use.   

Created by Anna Castelli Ferrieri, this 80's Kartell chair won the Compasso d’Oro—one of the highest design accolades. Each piece shows signs of wear consistent with age and use but they remain in very good vintage condition.

Price shown is per chair.

The leather has been professionally restored. There is a small hole on the middle seat cushion (pictured) but it's nothing that will get in the way of your enjoyment.

Why we love it

If ever there was a one-seater sofa then this is it. No joke. You could easily lie across this if you were so inclined. It feels a little bit like being a very young child and sitting in a fully grown person’s chair. And we mean all of that in a good way.

The feet on this vintage armchair are worth a mention, too. By raising the bulk of the piece of the floor on a skinny frame, it stops it dominating the space into which it’s placed. It’s a neat trick.

This is a full leather arrangement. Know that there are sings of wear on the seat but there are no tears. Many would describe it as a rich patina but that’s a call we’ll allow you to make.

Vintage X-Line stacking chairs combine retro styling and design brilliance.

Practical, durable and eye-catching, the X-line chair makes a welcome addition to any home. Unlike other stacking chairs, the X-line is designed to slip on to the front of the chair below so you don't need to waste energy piling one on top of another.

The Nuova X-Line chair was created by Danish designer Niels Jørgen Haugesen and made by Magis. These items show some signs of wear commensurate with age (1980’s) but remain in very good vintage condition.

Why we love it:

It is rare that you find vintage Italian furniture that has been so well looked after you are left wondering whether you have misunderstood the Belgian guy who decided to part ways with it.

But that’s where we are with this leather Maralunga sofa. If we didn’t know any better, we’d say this Cassina lounge was new.

If you frequent this corner of the internet regularly, you’ll know how much we love Magistretti and Cassina, but this design is a particular favourite. The seat back can be unfolded to create a headrest — and a totally unique sofa.

Well worth a look.

Why we love it:

You haven’t seen too many armchairs that behave like this one.

The seat back of this vintage Italian armchair unfurls to create a neat headrest (and an entirely unique look) that we expect you — everyone — will love. We certainly do.

But the basics are there, too. The leather is supple, the seat wide and the cushioning comfortable. Looks as good as it feels, basically.

This Maralunga chair is in great shape. If you’re into late twentieth century furniture, we have a feeling you’ll be into this.

Why we love it

There is very little point asking us how we feel about the Maralunga because we will always source one when we can.

This vintage Italian sofa is an example of what happens when a designer and a maker who were prepared to take a risk combine to make something different. And we’d argue it paid off.

Each seat back can be unfolded to provide more support for your neck or just to create a really cool sculptural look. You probably know we’re all about that.

We’ve reupholstered this vintage Cassina lounge in caramel velvet, which we feel is both true to the era it dates from and current. We do think about things, promise.

The Magistretti Veranda sofa is a design classic and among the best pieces of 1980’s postmodern furniture. 

This vintage Italian sofa is highly adaptable. The headrest can be folded upwards and footrests can be folded out from under the seat to completely change the arrangement while still retaining a relatively compact footprint. On each seat, the back rest also reclines with two separate levers.  

Produced by Cassina, this vintage original Veranda sofa promises to be made to the highest standards. It has been re-upholstered in a striped linen to return it to excellent vintage condition.

Introduce playful design elements into your theme with this vintage Kartell side chair.

This vintage armchair was created by two of the biggest names in twentieth century furniture.

Designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina in the 1970’s, the Maralunga chair encapsulates the design philosophy of the era. Its bulbous proportions and sculptural forms also mean it is as relevant now as it was when it was produced.

This retro lounge chair is equipped with an adjustable backrest to provide support for your head and neck. It has been reupholstered in pink bouclé and is now in excellent vintage condition.

Why we love them:

We’ve always had a thing for Rodney Kinsman furniture so there was no way we weren’t going to jump at these vintage Tokyo dining chairs.

These black metal chairs were originally designed for London’s Groucho club, which is, apparently, a big deal. We say apparently because we have never been and nor are we likely to go. Members only, right?

Put all that to one side and the fact remains: these are brilliant. The balance between straight lines and curves gives us life and the newly reupholstered, bouclé seats (our intervention) means these lightweight, retro dining chairs are as relevant now as they ever were.

Why we love them:

Stackable chairs are good at the best of times. Castelli vintage Italian stacking chairs with cowhide seats are goodness+.

The shape the frames make when these retro dining chairs are stacked one on top of the other is weirdly satisfying. We also really like how the feet adjust to the floor so you’re never left rocking on uneven surfaces. And that's without mentioning how sturdy they are.

But, yeah: this is all about the cowhide. Be aware that each chair is unique. 

Sold as a set of six.

Add iconic Bauhaus design to your set up with this Breuer-style chair.

Made from tubular metal, solid wood and rattan, this vintage cantilever chair strikes the perfect balance between organic and industrial. The shape of the frame, which boasts an economy that few can match, is as relevant now as it was when it was first devised.

The Breuer Cesca was created in 1928 and is considered the world’s first mass produced chair. This Cesca cane chair features a padded seat (with a new, brushed wool cover), dates from the second half of the twentieth century, and remains in excellent vintage condition.
