A masterful example of mid-century American lighting design, this black and brass floor lamp by Gerald Thurston for Lightolier is both functional beauty and sculptural shape. Thurston, one of the most influential lighting designers of the postwar era, was known for his innovative, adjustable designs that balanced modernist minimalism with practical sophistication. This piece, with its articulating arm and signature saucer-shaped shade, exemplifies the sleek, industrially inspired aesthetic that defined Lightolier's golden age in the 1950s and 60s. Designed for both task and ambient lighting, it offers versatility and refinement—hallmarks of Thurston’s approach.

Now part of the Lemieux Et Cie Vintage Collection, this rare find captures the enduring appeal of modernist design, perfect for collectors and design connoisseurs alike.
