1000 Chairs. Revised and updated edition (Bibliotheca Universalis) Hardcover – October 29, 2025

Amazed at the styles, and gave me ideas to redo some old chairs I have!

Great book. Happy with the purchase. Well timed delivery. Thx.

Love this book!

What can you say about a book that shows a thousand chairs? Practically every meaningful chair design from any famous designer is in this, but as a brief introduction only. I think the authors have done a really good job of cramming a lot of images and brief information into a book that still can be lifted with one hand. You could probably get the same information if you were willing to invest hours in an internet search, but it was well worth the price I paid to get a new copy from a second-hand seller for about 1.6 cents per chair. It is a beautiful and well-made edition.

Love this this chair dictionary! Excellent book to keep at coffee table …great conversation topics for many curious visitors interested in good design

Smaller than I thought it would be but has a lot of chairs and info !

All the chairs, it would be too much for an average person, but for us chairaholics? Perfect. I leave this on my coffee table to let people know I’m cooler and more sophisticated than them.

I truly only got these as pretty coffee table books thanks to josh and matt
