Your favourite lamp  

Yes, WAY too much about...
Yes, WAY too much about clocks craved by one or two individuals! Enough to make me pitch both of my Nelson clocks! But lamps are wonderful. My personal fav in my collection is a Flos floor lamp by Sebastian Wrong in a perfect shade of chocolate brown. I am a big fan also of the tizio lamps made by Artemide. I have a couple of lamps by a German company (holtkeller?), and a few Gretta Grossman lamps... or something like that. I am always looking to purchase a new lamp. Suggestions?

Old Fashioned
Call me old fashioned, but there's something lovely and simple and very un-designy about the Luxo L1.

lamp
I've posted this lamp before. It's my favorite lamp from my collection.

It's a nice tripod lamp
but here's three of my favorites (in my collection)

Anything designed by Serge Mouille
I could never hope to own even a re-edition, but I can dream. (Sorry, only caught the bit about "pride of place in your living space" on the second go-round. Don't make me post pix of my battered Nelson bubble lamp, when you can admire these instead.)

Sorry,,,,
Couldn't help myself

Favorites
Flos Spun table lamp(I have it in white), Artemide tolomeo Mega, and flos Luxmaster(I had it, but the plastic just broke). Oh and bubble lamps, I can't forget those(I have a large Cigar). Miss K table lamp too, nice lamp.

William H.C., that's a David Weeks lamp you have pictured there....
in the second photo and not Mouille. David Weeks lighting designs are sold through Ralph Pucci, and seem (to me at least) like beautiful Calder-like reconstructions of Mouille, Jacques Biny, Pierre Guariche, and Gino Sarfatti.

Oops, you're right!
Evidentally, I'm also a fan of David Weeks (as is HE of Serge Mouille, it appears).

Couple of my latest faves
I have a lamp collection and can't get enough of them..
This one was being thrown away and I brought it home with me:

(A friend ID'ed it as possibly being made by "Lawrin Co. Chicago, Illinois" in the late 60's or early 70's. I liked the large glass sphere inside the wicker shade and it's yellow faux-bamboo look. Fit's in nicely to my rummage sale- style apartment.)
The other current fave is just a no-name orange lamp I bought from a junk dealer for a three dollars. Dates from the 70's I imagine, judging by the wiring.

I'm extremely jealous of all the fantastic lamps in this thread and hope to someday have even one of them in my collection!
