Seller linked below attributes the lamp as a Grossman designed table-top version of the grasshopper. Has anyone else ever seen this or can verify. I'm skeptical. I bought the same at a yard sale a couple of years ago (see image) because it reminded me of Grossman. I'm thinking its a bogus attribution.....although I'd love it if I was wrong. Thoughts?

No.
Grossman's floor lamp put the long stem of the lamp OUTSIDE the legs, not inside as in your table lamp.

I think/thought the same thin...
I think/thought the same thing. Amazing, though, how dealers will blow smoke up their client's asses to sell an item at an inflated price.
