Rare early Mid Century lounge chair by Harvey Probber
June 15, 2018
1950s Harvey Probber model 1066 hoop back cane lounge chair. Harvey Probber was one of Americas most lauded 20. Equally at home in wood, metal and fabric he was also recognised for his range of cane furniture which set a new standard for beautifully crafted furniture that was considered both elegant and modern. The chairs are rare to find in their original form without repair as the cane detailing would often get damaged. This chair however is in its original condition and has been re-finished to a high standard whilst still maintaining marks of its history and patina. The seat was re-upholstered in velvet over 20 years ago but is in excellent condition having hardly been used and set aside in storage ever since. The model 1066 with its angular frame and the soft contour of its hooped back represents Harvey Probber at his best and still stands the test of time today. The chair shows a signature on the underneath of the frame. H x 33.46 in. W x 25.59 in. 65cm H x 85cm W x 65cm D.
