Frank Lloyd Wright originally designed the wooden table lamp for the interior of his own home, Taliesin, built in Spring Green, Wisconsin in 1911. Engaged in a solid base, the shaft of the lamp supports a square shade in a design that evokes the sheltering roof of a pagoda, one of the architect's signature tectonic forms. Wright became so fond of the lamp that he specified it repeatedly for use in the homes of his later clients, and in 1955, the table lamp was reconfigured as a floor lamp for the Donald Loveness House in Stillwater, Minnesota. Gracefully reproportioned here, the lamp now stands at 49 inches in height. Its soft, diffused light renders it suitable as a reading lamp in a living room or side lamp in a corporate office.

UL approved, 60W incandescent bulb (frosted), medium base. Shade is laminated Japanese paper. Base and shade is available in black ash, cherry, cherry wine or vandyke walnut.
