An award-winning 1948 design by Swedish-American Greta Grossman for Ralph O. Smith, a California-based lighting company. The lamp, colloquially known as the “Cobra” for its uniquely shaped cement colored enamel shade that resembles a cobra’s hood, is counterweighted with a segmented arm curving upward from a round base. The oblong shade slants gently from the arm to its outer edge. Light is controlled by a push-button on/off switch on base.
Dimensions
11.5” width x 14.5” depth x 15” height, but the versatile adjustable arm extends up to 22.5” height.
Condition
Vintage condition; professionally cleaned. Some scratches, appropriate to the age and use of the piece, can be observed on the enamel. Newly rewired.
