Gräshoppa Table Lamp
Greta M. Grossman conceived the Gräshoppa in 1947, at a moment when Scandinavian modernism and California design were in quiet, productive dialogue. The lamp carries that exchange in its proportions: an elongated, tilted shade that suggests both insect and instrument, balanced on a stand of deliberate slenderness.
The composition is disciplined without being severe. Grossman understood that a lamp is also a presence in a room, and the Gräshoppa earns its place as both a working light and a considered object. It delivers focused, directed illumination while maintaining a lightness of form that heavier task lamps rarely achieve.
- Original 1947 design by Greta M. Grossman, reissued by GUBI
- Slender brass stand with characteristic angled shade
- Compact footprint suited to desks, side tables, and reading nooks
- Available in a range of curated colorways
Grossman worked across furniture, lighting, and architecture from her Los Angeles studio, and her sensibility runs through every angle of this lamp: economy of means, confidence of gesture, and an understanding that good design ages by growing more itself over time.
