Greta Magnusson Grossman
Greta Magnusson Grossman maintained a prolific forty-year career on two continents, Europe and North America, with achievements in industrial design, interior design, and architecture. Although it was not as frequently exhibited in Good Design exhibitions in the 1950s as her Cobra table lamp, Magnusson Grossman’s Grasshopper floor lamp has become over time one of the most famous lights of midcentury modern design. This example in coral pink dates to the first years of production by Ralph O. Smith, the tiny Californian midcentury lighting manufactory, and allegedly belonged to Andy Warhol.

Greta Magnusson Grossman, USA, 1949
This wall or ceiling version of Greta Magnusson Grossman’s famous Cobra lamp was made by Ralph O. Smith and initially sold at Barker Brothers. With the success of Grossman’s designs, however, the father-and-son team based in Burbank grew to be a retailer in its own right. The lamp was then advertised as a direct partnership between Ralph O. Smith Modern Lamps and Fixtures, and Magnusson Grossman Design. Originally called Fixture No. 905, this model Cobra could be swiveled to a vertical position for indirect light or to light wall works, or turned downwards to serve as a desk light.
