The Stemlite (1962) was the first 'total look' lamp, a pioneering new typology conceived by American Designer Bill Curry, which replaced the traditional base-plus-shade form with a single self-contained unit. The Stemlite Floor Lamp was inspired by the strong, organic, yet slender stems that support flower heads in nature. It comprises a die-cast metal base, evocative of a tulip stem, topped with a mouth-blown glass globe, and a simple cylinder-shaped rotary switch. The visual consistency across the collection and carefully curated color palette offer the opportunity to combine the lights in any combination making them ideal for residential, commercial, and hospitality settings alike. Their subtle organic form complements bold modern interior spaces as well as more traditional surroundings. The black chrome, pebble gray, and black red are an understated and contemporary take on the original pop-inspired palette. The frosted glass globe - originally mouth-blown by the company that made Los Angeles' sturdy historic street lights provides a gentle, atmospheric glow, perfect for adding diffused ambient light to a lighting scheme.
