Harvey Probber Curved Crescent Sofa, 1960s, 2 Available
Located in Culver City, CA
Available right now, we have this stunning crescent sofa by design master, Harvey Probber! Picture this: You're lounging in sheer opulence on a sofa that's as curvy as the bird streets, and equally as glamorous. And guess what? We've got not one, but two of these rare 1960's gems, both dressed up in the most lavish off-white bouclé fabric you've ever seen, and priced per sofa.
The Crescent Sofa by Harvey Probber is the epitome of swanky sophistication, originally designed in the late 40's early 1950's, Its unique crescent shape cradles you in heavenly comfort, like a warm embrace from an old friend. It's not just a sofa; it's a lifestyle statement. When you think of luxury, this is what you see.
Now, about that off-white bouclé upholstery. It's the stuff of dreams, folks. Imagine sinking into those plush cushions, feeling like you're floating on a cloud. It's the kind of fabric that practically begs you to kick off your shoes and sprawl out in utter relaxation. And yes, it's as Instagram-worthy as it gets. #BoucléGoals, anyone?
Harvey Probber was a design genius with a vision as big as the moon. Born in 1922, this guy knew a thing or two about making furniture that oozed class and charisma. He took inspiration from design royalty like Edward Wormley, Tommi Parzinger, and Vladimir Kagan.
Edward Wormley, the king of mid-century modern, knew how to balance clean lines and timeless elegance. Wormley's influence on Probber is evident in the sofa's sleek, yet inviting silhouette.
Tommi Parzinger, with his penchant for glamorous details, inspired Probber to add that extra touch of opulence to his designs. It's all about the details, darling!
And speaking of details, Vladimir Kagan's knack for avant-garde shapes pushed Probber to think outside the box (or in this case, the crescent). Kagan's audacious designs encouraged Probber to create pieces that were as daring as they were luxurious.

Shop Unique Furniture on 1stDibs
When it comes to shopping for vintage, new and antique furniture — whether you’re finally moving into that long-coveted loft apartment, ranch-style home, townhouse or furnishing your weekend house on the lake — you should think of your home as a stage for the seating, tables, lighting, storage cabinets and other pieces that best match your personality.
Coziness, comfort and creating a welcoming space are among the important things to consider when buying furniture, whether that means seeking strict cohesion or rooms characterized by a mix-and-match assembly of varying shapes, colors and materials. And for those who now work from home, exercise, eat and relax within the same four walls every day, they’ll also want to think about flexibility and an innovative approach.
Have you built your dream kitchen?
Is your current living-room furniture all that it could be?
Does your toast-worthy bar or vintage bar cart exude equal parts class and cheeriness?
And importantly, is your home office — backyard or otherwise — a happy one, regardless of the design style you happen to gravitate toward?
Although mid-century modern, rustic, minimalist, Art Deco and contemporary looks remain popular, they aren’t the only styles available to design connoisseurs.
Furniture styles are nothing if not fluid, meaning what’s popular one year may not be the next. That’s why it’s crucial to not only pay attention to interior-design trends but also focus on the styles that speak to you. That way, you (and your interior designer, if that is in the plans) can work to create a home that’s entirely your own, complete with impressively modern decor as well as an array of history’s universally renowned iconic designs.
It’s difficult to single out well-recognized designs from what is a crowded pantheon of celebrated and seminal furnishings. Certain outstanding designs have such stellar quality they’ve endured for decades as bona fide cultural treasures, still being manufactured, in many cases, by the same venerable companies that shepherded them into being (think Herman Miller, Knoll and Fritz Hansen). Some works come immediately to mind as contenders for any short list. When you’re discussing the most popular mid-century modern chairs, for example, no tally would be complete without citing designs by Arne Jacobsen, Charlotte Perriand, Charles and Ray Eames and Hans Wegner.
Good furniture, be it authentic vintage furniture or new & custom furniture, allows you to comfortably sit and tell your favorite stories. Great furniture tells a story of its own.
On 1stDibs, find everything from sofas to serveware to credenzas to coffee tables, and every other type of antique, vintage and new furniture you need to create a singular space that you’ll be proud to call home.
