the best of post-war design, each lamp composed of stacked tri-color conical-form glazed elements with brass mounts; Gerald Thurston was one of the most creative American lighting designers of the postwar era. His innovative designs exemplify the streamlined forms of the mid 20^th century. Thurston joined Lightolier in 1950, the same year New York’s Museum of Modern Art featured one of his floor lamps in their Good Design Exhibition of 1950.
