A set of old-world furniture that includes a sofa, loveseat and toss pillow. A rich coffee brown color covers the composition for a sophisticated touch. The contrasting floral patterns add warmth to the piece.
Designer Advice:
The graceful silhouette of these sofas would pair well with a wooden coffee table with cabriole legs. Add an accent piece to your ensemble by getting an upholstered wingback chair in the same color palette as the set. And if you still have room in the back, we recommend placing a sofa console, styled with lamps and a low floral arrangement.

Designer Advice:
Offered in two upholstery options, the gray set would look perfect in a contemporary farmhouse or transitional style living room. Place a distressed wood top table with metal legs for a rustic appeal. Meanwhile, the navy-blue set brings a moody impression to the living room. For an exotic touch, we recommend using a dark gray Moroccan ottoman as a coffee table.

With their fine materials and rich details, Old World pieces evoke the grandeur of Renaissance and borrow from the best of traditional designs.

Old World living room furniture hasn't failed yet in making interiors inviting and elegant.
Different pieces of furniture will come with different requirements in terms of dimensions and placement. Consider the following:
- Chairs and Sofas. These ones are big-ticket items, most especially when they have an Old World styling. It is important that you choose the ones that suit your space’s dimensions, so measure the available room you have for them before you make an order online. What you don’t want is getting pieces that are not in the right scale. If possible, draw a floor plan. Sketch the room on any piece of paper and use the appropriate measurements. You can also try putting the Old World chairs and sofa in several different spots so you know where they work best visually. Of course, you need to leave space for traffic to flow.
- Coffee Table. A coffee table is a practical piece that is often found at the center of areas where conversations are held. If you want an Old World coffee table, then remember that its height should be lower by a few inches than the sofa seat’s height. As for your table’s length, it should be two-thirds of the sofa’s length. If you don’t like the idea of an Old World coffee table, try making use of smaller tables. Just make sure that they are not too small if you want to achieve the look of an Old World coffee table. The people that will be sitting around the tables should still be able to learn to pick up or put down drinks without getting up from the sofa or chairs. Remember as well to leave leg room in between the tables and the sofa. Around 18 inches would do the trick.
- Side Tables. These ones are often an afterthought; however, they are important. If you have lots of sofas and chairs, then you’ll need more side tables too. Try having a side table on every side of your sofa and in between a pair of chairs. Make sure you don’t overcrowd the room. As for the height of side tables, they should be the same as the height of the arms of chairs that they are next to.
