Did gothic living room furniture exist and if so what was it?
I love the look of gothic beds and tables/chairs, but what went in the living room, if anything?
Living rooms weren’t around back then. Peasants used benches, royalty used individual chairs. Furniture–cabinets and tables–were massive. Try this website:

I’m not even sure Victorian style would give you the right "feel." Maybe some of the 17th -19th century German pieces would do. Heavy, dark and richly carves.
Google H.R. Giger and check his site out, he’s got some nice furniture there
