Mid Century Modern 2-Drawer Cocktail Table in Walnut and Brass by Harvey Probber
Mid Century Modern 2-Drawer Cocktail Table in Walnut and Brass by Harvey Probber
This elegant and refined cocktail table was designed by Harvey Probber and handmade in Fall River, Massachusetts circa 1960. Probber believed that "aging gracefully" represented the "fourth dimension" of great design, and this piece is definitely a testament to that credo. Composed of austere rectilinear forms, the piece offers a rectangular top in book matched walnut with two spacious drawers on the left side of the piece. The drawers have two circular brass pulls, which formally relate to the cylindrical brass legs of the same diameter. The staggered length of the two sets of legs imbues the a dynamic energy. With its clean lines and timeless aesthetic, this piece would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It is in mint restored condition. The original Harvey Probber tag is affixed to the inside of the top drawer.
