Moma Lamp by Gilbert Watrous for Heifetz
$3,500.00
Moma Lamp by Gilbert Watrous for Heifetz. Nice, large, early example. Original patina. The Watrous' lamp won a “Good Design” award for an intriguing low-cost light fixture featuring a pivot comprised of a magnetized steel ball residing comfortably inside a concave socket. The Museum of Modern Art Low Cost Lighting Competition awardee was referred to as “Model No. F-1-W Floor Light” while the table version was simply referred to as “table light” in Heifetz materials. The original pre-production version was described as “…long arm balances on a magnetic ball perched on a singular rod mounted in walnut. The lamp can be rotated 360 degrees and can be used as a table or floor lamp.”
