Organic “Crescent Moon” Coffee Table by Greta Grossman for Glenn of California
About the Item
Amazing and rare “crescent moon” coffee table by Greta M. Grossman.
This organic stunner was designed in 1952 for Glenn of California and is true to Grossman’s whimsical designs.
The great thing about this design is it can be placed in a variety of ways and angled to accommodate the seating around it. Each angle shows a slightly different shape. Each with wonderful proportions.
This example was found with a black base. It is unknown if this was an original order or redone since. We have decided to leave it as is as it’s a nice complement to the walnut grain.
Marked with model number in grease pencil on underside.

Greta Magnusson Grossman
Designer and architect Greta Magnusson Grossman first gained fame in her native Sweden, where she established her store and workshop and became the first woman to receive a prize for furniture design from the Swedish Society of Industrial Design. In 1940, she married jazz musician Billy Grossman and moved to Los Angeles.
Upon her arrival in Southern California, she opened the Magnusson Grossman Studio on Rodeo Drive and rapidly became popular among the Hollywood elite, including Greta Garbo and Gracie Allen.
In addition to creating iconic furniture and lighting — like the Grasshopper series for Barker Bros. or the Cobra lamp for Ralph O. Smith — Magnusson Grossman designed 14 homes in the Los Angeles area inspired by the Case Study Houses.
Combining her Scandinavian roots with laid-back West Coast style, Magnusson Grossman became a notable contributor to California modernism.
