Apache is functioning normally

Furniture helps give a home personality. It’s a testament to your style and tells visitors a bit about the people who live there. Even though expensive doesn’t automatically translate to opulent or over-the-top, some pricy furniture can have an aesthetic that makes you look twice.

Sometimes expensive furniture indicates the quality and craftsmanship of the piece, making it worth the investment. The idea of what’s expensive really depends on the household budget, as what’s considered affordable furniture to one person may be outrageously priced to another.

Whether you’re gathering ideas for your next renovation project, love browsing luxury products, or looking for unforgettable furniture with an extravagant price tag, here are 12 expensive furnishings that can set your home apart.

5. Sottsass Ultrafragola Mirror

Though not considered furniture in the sense of substantial items like dining tables or office chairs, one could argue that certain types of mirrors can be classified as furnishings due to stature alone. The modern Sottsass Ultrafragola Mirror by designer Poltranova at Studio Paz is a spotlight seeker with a price tag of $19,000 that’s just as lavish. Wavy acrylic sides and neon lights make the piece stand out, and women’s sensuality inspires its design, so it’s an excellent topic of conversation, too.

9. Togo Ligne Roset Fireside Chair

The first impression of a Togo Ligne Roset Fireside Chair is that it’s probably not expensive, likely because it resembles a cozy bean bag chair with better support for your back. However, the price tag of $4,150 is thousands more than you would need to spend on a regular bean bag chair.

Under the unassuming design, three densities of foam aid in the chair’s ergonomics, and you can choose the exterior fabric to complement your home decor. This simple design is inviting and certainly an excellent chair for reading, watching movies, or even napping.
