Hitchcock Rush Chairs For Sale on 1stDibs
An assortment of hitchcock rush chairs is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique hitchcock rush chairs was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, natural fiber and rush. Hitchcock rush chairs have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 19th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. Hitchcock rush chairs have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Lambert Hitchcock are consistently popular.
How Much are Hitchcock Rush Chairs?
Hitchcock rush chairs can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $1,523, while the lowest priced sells for $225 and the highest can go for as much as $3,600.
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 Hitchcock Rush Chairs
- What is a Hitchcock chair?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Hitchcock chairs are 19th century-style chairs that were popular in the middle class as an emblem of social mobility. The chairs were affordable due to their easily mass-produced stenciling technique that replaced earlier painting designs.
- Are Hitchcock chairs valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 1, 2024Yes, some Hitchcock chairs are valuable. However, even early pieces made when the company first launched in the 19th century were mass produced, so chairs manufactured by the brand may not sell at price points as high as other antique furnishings. How much a particular Hitchcock chair is worth depends on its style, age, condition and rarity. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can help you determine the estimated value of your chair. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Hitchcock chairs.
- Are Hitchcock chairs still made?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, the Hitchcock Chair Company closed its doors in 2006. Hitchcock chairs were initially created by Lambert Hitchcock who decided he could mass produce chairs for people. By the 1820s the Hitchcock chair company was making 300 chairs a week, a remarkable number at a time when many pieces of furniture were being handmade one piece at a time. Shop a collection of properly vetted Hitchcock Chairs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What are rush seats on chairs?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Rush seats are chairs where the seating part is woven out of long, grass-like vegetation. After the material dries, the makers weave it to make a strong surface for sitting. Shop antique rush chairs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
