NYC and Long Island Mid-Century Modern Furniture Buyer

The Mid-Century Modern furniture market is hot! Furniture from the 50s and 60s is in extremely high demand today. It’s hard to believe that 100-year-old antique wood furniture has become very difficult to sell. Instead, furniture a half-century old is what buyers and designers are looking for. Heavy oversized dark mahogany wood antique furniture is being replaced. The Mid-Century Modern furniture designers used materials such as steel, lucite, glass, and plastic. The popular colors of furniture from the Mid-Century period include light brown, white, black, and just about all colors of the rainbow. Modern furniture is often curved and tends to have a clean look. Many Mid-Century Modern designers come from the United States and Denmark.

It is definitely a seller’s market for (MCM) Mid-Century Modern furniture. Syl-Lee Antiques has many designers and private buyers in New York City waiting for the perfect piece. If you are moving and need to sell some furniture, it would be a great idea to let someone from Syl-Lee Antiques take a look. The furniture we buy includes chairs, stools, benches, settees, sofas, lamps, chandeliers, coffee tables, dining room tables, side tables, wall art, sculptures, and any other Mid-Century decorative items. Listed below are some of the many furniture designers we look for and buy. The 2 lists include American furniture designers and Danish furniture designers.

Do not be discouraged if you have a piece of Mid-Century Modern furniture that is not designed by one of the designers or companies listed. We buy many pieces from other furniture designers as well. In addition, we also purchase some furniture that just has the right mid-century retro “look.”
