Description

The Grasshopper floor lamp is an iconic piece of work by Greta Grossman in the 40s and 50s. First produced in 1947 and reissued by Gubi in 2011, the Gashoppa floor lamp is made from steel and fitted with a steerable conical diffuser. According to Greta Grossman, modern design is "something that believes and takes root in the needs of contemporary life, an imposed style". This design classic published by Gubi is distinguished by its backward sloping base and the shape of its shade, both inspired by the silhouette of the grasshopper. An iconic object from the mid-20th century, the Grasshopper floor lamp Gubi, is a must-have for design enthusiasts, who snatch it up at auction around the world for top dollar. The silhouette of the Gubi Grasshoper Lamp, is unique and instantly recognisable, with its tripod and backward sloping stem ending in an articulated head. The luminaire's tripod base and 360° adjustable conical shade are a distinctive combination that goes hand in hand with the name of the suspension luminaire. The simple, clean lines of the Grashoppa floor lamp are ultra-graphic. Its tubular steel tripod is tilted backwards, while the conical aluminium shade is connected to the structure by a rotating joint that allows the light to be directed with maximum precision. This floor lamp, designed by Greta Grossman, diffuses a soft, warm light. Available in several colours, Grasshopper is a lightweight reading light that's practical at the end of a sofa or in a bedroom. The Gubi Grasshoper floor lamp captivates with its sleek style. Elegant and original thanks to its conical shape, the Grashoppa floor lamp can be used in an office, a bedroom, or even a living room. This floor lamp has a unique and inimitable look, a symbol of European modernism.

In the 1920s, she completed her cabinetmaking apprenticeship in Helsingborg, and received a scholarship to the Konstfack art school in Stockholm, where she studied furniture, textile and stoneware design. In 1933, she was the first woman to be awarded the second prize for furniture design by the Stockholm Craft Association.That same year, Greta Magnusson Grossman and her fellow Konstfack student Erik Ullrich, opened a boutique and design studio in Stockholm. She later married Billy Grossman, the leader of a jazz band. In 1937, Greta Magnusson Grossman designed the famous cradle of Princess Birgitta of Sweden for an exhibition at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. In 1940, she and her husband moved to the United States, settling in Los Angeles, where she opened her furniture, lighting and home accessories boutique in Beverly Hills. In addition to her boutique, she designs for Sherman Bertram, Modern Line, Barker Brothers, and Glenn of California. Greta Magnusson Grossman designs many houses in California, often in collaboration with architect Garrett Eckbo. Some have foundations of over 450 square metres, and others are on stilts. During the 1950s, Greta Magnusson Grossman taught industrial design at the Art Center School and the University of California, both based in Los Angeles.
