Affordable Mid-Century Modern Furniture Ideas
Mid-century modern furniture and décor at affordable prices – it’s not a unicorn, unseen and unique, but a real, everyday thing (if you know where to look). When it comes to your home, settling should never be an option; your home is a reflection of your style and should be filled with quality pieces to last you a long time. To help you keep your spending low while scoring on stylish steals, we’ve put together a list of best affordable mid-century modern furniture. Stay mid-mod (not mad)!
Affordable Mid-Century Modern Furniture & Décor Ideas
1. The Brown Mid-Century Modern Dresser (< $600)
Mid-century modern designs tend to be more expensive than regularly-modern designs due to their niche category, limited supplies and high demand. That’s why we’re starting this list off with a bang: a vast, six-drawer dresser that’s mid-mod-all-over and unbeatably under $500 (a steal by even the regularly-modern standard).
2. The Brown Mid-Century Modern Drawer Chest (< $500)
You’ve scored on the brown mid-mod dresser – top off the look with a matching drawer chest for less. Combined, the two designs make the room, and will have you spending less than $1000 on what is essentially a complete storage set.
3. The Blue Tufted Chair (< $400)
Creating a mid-century modern space? You’ll need a pop of color, and a peaceful blue armchair in the tufted fashion is the perfect place to start. Check out the Blue Mid-Mod Reading Chair shop for more great designs similar to this look, all at affordable price points for the savvy shopper.
4. The Blue Tufted Sofa (< $550)
Perhaps the star of this list, the wide, spacious, chic sofa for under $300 is what some decorators spend entire careers searching for. If you’ve been searching, you can stop now; pair this sofa with the blue tufted chair to make your room pop.
5. The Tapered Bed (< $400)
The polished look of this bed doesn’t ask for much; it’s simple in the mid-century modern way, and looks as if its sole purpose for existence is to give you the most sophisticated sleep of your life. In the same way, its price tag also doesn’t ask for much: for the Full and Queen size, you’ll be set back not even $400. That’s about half the price of a new smartphone.
6. The Wood Chest (< $400)
For this list, this design isn’t the cheapest, but it comes at arguably the best value of them all. Sporting a meticulous silhouette, the drawers open to quality storage space on a quality framework in a quality finish and with quality wood construction. When it comes to shopping on a budget, quality is the raison d’etre, and this wood mid-century chest plays the game well.
7. The Upholstered Settee (< $500)
Designing a mid-century modern room on a budget, it’s easy to want to focus on the necessities – the things you need, the sofa, table and chairs. If this is your strategy, consider re-strategizing; a settee provides more seating than an accent chair, comes at a better value and adds that interesting focal point so necessary to a mid-century modern décor landscape.
8. The High Leg Recliner (< $700)
In the world of affordable mid-century modern, recliners are rare for the simple reason that most aren’t designed for the mid-century home. This high-leg design doesn’t conform to the more common puffy, overstuffed ‘grandpa’ types – it’s made for style, with style. And for the price, it’s basically begging you to take it home.
9. Playful Blue (< $400)
This one’s the perfect accent piece; it’s polished, sophisticated and comfy. Pair it with a neutral palette to brighten up a space without spending an arm and a leg.
10. The Amala Chair (Best Splurge)
The Amala is completely luxurious, and will make you want to lounge in your mid-century home indefinitely. Features include adjustable settings, silky leather and retro style.
