This rare gentleman’s chest, designed by harvey probber in the 1950s, is a distinguished example of mid-century modern american furniture that combines refined craftsmanship with sophisticated design. Constructed from a blend of teak and mahogany, the piece features a striking contrast between the warm, natural hues of the teak and the dark-stained drawer fronts, showcasing probber’s nuanced use of materials. The chest is organized vertically with eight drawers, each equipped with recessed circular handles accented by brass detailing, adding both functional ease and subtle elegance. Adjacent to the drawers, a hinged door conceals a storage compartment lined with multiple adjustable glass shelves, enhancing the piece’s versatility and practicality. The entire case rests on squared legs finished with brass feet, introducing a touch of understated luxury and grounding the design. Reflecting probber’s hallmark style, this gentleman’s chest embodies a balance between modernist minimalism and meticulous craftsmanship. The clean lines and thoughtful material contrasts make it both a functional storage solution and a refined statement piece. The chest measures 96.5 cm in width (38 inches), 51 cm in depth (20 inches), and 136.5 cm in height (53.7 inches). additional information: material: brass, glass, mahogany, teak style: mid century producer: harvey probber period: 1950s country: usa dimensions: w: 96.5 / d: 51 / h: 136.5 this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
