Dal Vera
Dal Vera furniture is all about bringing breezy style indoors. Through its mid-century modern pieces, this Italian manufacturer expanded the depth and breadth of materials used for interior furniture design. The company’s exceptional dining room tables, chairs and chests of drawers feature beautiful woven wicker, rattan and other natural fibers that are more commonly found in relaxed outdoor pieces.
Based in Conegliano in the Veneto region of Italy, Dal Vera was founded in 1884 by Antonio Dal Vera and produced an extensive collection of living and dining room furniture. During its peak in the mid-20th century, Italian designer Flam Sansoni created much of the furniture for the company. Materials like bamboo, glass and leather also featured heavily in its inventive designs, as did brass hardware and handles. Dal Vera’s postwar creations have a more typically mid-century modern appeal, with clean and angular lines inspired by Scandinavian designers such as Hans Wegner. Over the years, the company’s pieces took on a Bohemian style, keeping up with the trends of the time.
Throughout the early 1980s, Dal Vera dining room chairs were used by the Les Arcs ski resort in Savoie, France. They were personally selected by the influential French designer and architect Charlotte Perriand. The company’s high-quality pieces remain in demand with collectors today.

$2,454 Sale Price20% Off - Mid-Century Modern Black Faux Leather Love Seat Sofa by Taylor Chair Co. Style DBy Harvey Probber, Dunbar Furniture, Taylor Chair co., Edward WormleyLocated in Topeka, KSHandsome Mid-Century Modern love seat length sofa in black vinyl faux leather upholstery and walnut base in the style of Wormley for Dunbar or Harvey Probber. It is in wonderful vintage condition. We believe the black vinyl to be fairly new. The walnut base does have age appropriate little nicks and dings. Please see photos, circa 1960s. It is hard to say who designed and produced this fabulously gorgeous and simple streamline Mid-Century Modern style sofa first. Was is Edward Wormley for Dunbar? Was it Harvey Probber or Florence Knoll? Or, did Taylor Chair Company, the maker of this particular love seat, actually make their rendition first? Does it matter? You will love the lines and materials used in this two-seat love seat Lawson shape sofa with a tight back and two loose seat cushions. It is covered in a very nice and natural looking black faux leather vinyl. So close to the real thing its is hard to tell the difference. And sets on a walnut Parsons’ style base. Simple but very handsome. Taylor Chair Company was founded by Benjamin Fitch in 1816 Bedford, Ohio. He originally made split-bottom chairs in his cabin. In 1841 one of Mr. Fitch’s employees, William O. Taylor, married Mr. Fitch’s daughter. William quickly took over active management of the company and by late 1940s the company became known as W.O.
