Shaving Stands For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of shaving stands is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique shaving stands was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, mahogany and glass. Shaving stands have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century. Shaving stands are generally popular furniture pieces, but Victorian, Arts and Crafts and Art Deco styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Some shaving stands are too large for some spaces — a variety of smaller shaving stands, measuring 12.6 inches across, are available at 1stDibs. There have been many well-made shaving stands over the years, but those made by Mingazzi, Morris & Co. and Thonet are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much are Shaving Stands?

Shaving stands can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $2,450, while the lowest priced sells for $800 and the highest can go for as much as $7,500.

Finding the Right Vanities for You

Vintage vanities trace back to the dressing tables of 18th-century France, where the poudreuse held powders and mirrors for a lady's toilette. The look later split in two: the gilded flourish of Art Deco and Louis XV, and the pared-back simplicity of the mid-century makeup vanity.

Styles to Know

Mid-century makeup vanities with slim tapered legs are seeing strong search interest, though Art Deco vanities with mirrored or lacquered finishes remain a popular choice for more formal bedrooms. A vintage mirror completes the piece if it doesn't already include one, and a vintage table lamp adds flattering light.

How to Choose the Right Vintage Vanity

A vanity works best near a window or another source of natural light, worth keeping in mind when planning where it will sit, and the knee-clearance height is worth checking against the stool you intend to pair with it. Each piece comes from a vetted 1stDibs seller, with era, designer and condition detailed. Backed by the 1stDibs Promise on every order.
