George Nelson, Bubble lamp line, 1947
George Nelson created the “Bubble Lamp” line for Howard Miller in 1947. Howard Miller continued to sell the line throughout the late 1970’s after which they were discontinued. George Nelson never named the different lamp designs and they were simply given numbers by Howard Miller. In the 1990’s Modernica reissued the “Bubble Lamp” line and “named” each individual Bubble Lamp design, for example Saucer, Ball, Criss-Cross, etc.
