Karl Springer LTD, Gunmetal Mushroom Table Lamp, USA
Karl Springer’s streamlined Mushroom Lamp, designed in the 1980s, features a brass cylindrical base and rounded shade. A small dimming knob at the bottom of the base and a unique honeycomb light diffuser under the shade allow the intensity of the light emitted to be controlled. The lamp both emits and reflects the light around it.
In partnership with Mark Eckman, President of Karl Springer LTD, Todd Merrill has curated a selection of Karl Springer’s most iconic designs to be reissued exclusively at Todd Merrill Studio.
Though he based his designs on European classical forms, Karl Springer developed an irreverent and non-doctrinaire idiom of bold proportions, highly exotic finishes, and a sometimes-flashy palette that identified him strongly with his American clientele. His work speaks with the confidence and energy of the 1970s and 80s and now finds new relevance in the world of contemporary design.
Karl Springer LTD pieces are available exclusively through Todd Merrill Studio on a commission basis. Custom dimensions and materials may be accommodated.
