Modernica SAUCER-LAMP George Nelson Saucer Bubble Pendant Lamp

Modernica SAUCER-LAMP George Nelson Saucer Bubble Pendant Lamp

George Nelson bubble lamps from Modernica are constructed of a steel wire frame and covered with translucent spun acrylic resin, emitting a soft, even light that cuts glare but allows a warm light to softly shine through.

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. A large Saucer lamp was simply sold under Bubble Lamp H-727, a large Ball lamp was sold under Bubble Lamp H-725. Howard Miller sold a variety of handy accessories for the lamps including a tripod base of satin chrome or brass-finished steel, swing arms, adjustable pulley fixture, etc. Also interesting to note is that all Bubble Lamps were available with criss-cross wire pattern except models H-725, H-726, H-727 and H-728. In order to get a criss-cross wire pattern from your dealer, you simply specified the order with CC after the lamp number.

Howard Miller did not sell the lamps directly, rather outsourced the sales to Richards Morgenthau, Inc who handled their national sales. In the 1990's Modernica reissued the Bubble Lamp line and named each individual Bubble Lamp design, for example Saucer, Ball, Criss-Cross, etc. The pendant George Nelson Bubble Lamps have 6 feet of cord included in the assembly kit. The extra large sizes come with 9 feet of cord.

All of the Bubble Lamps are UL Rated for up to 150 watt bulbs, except for the Small Saucer style which is UL Rated for 60 watts.
