Standing Lamp
Frank Lloyd Wright American
Wright designed a set of six oak standing lamps (1972.60.14-.19) in total for the Littles’ summer house on Lake Minnetonka. The shades consist of hexagonal oak frames filled with parchment paper. In a nod to the Asian art that Wright so admired (he made his first of many trips to Japan in 1905), each lamp has a long silk pull cord with a Chinese-style tassel for switching the electric light on and off.
