Sculptural Neon Torchiere Floor Lamp by Let There Be Neon for George Kovacs

About the Item

A true statement. Sculptural, monolithic torchiere with a magenta neon element designed by Dan Chelsea of Let There Be Neon, founded by Rudi Stern, in collaboration with George Kovacs. A total must have for any fan of the eclectic and post-modern, the lamp warrants a comment from anyone who walks into it's space. It features two separate knobs - one controlling the neon mechanism, and the other acting as a dimmer switch for the torchiere. The torchiere takes a standard bulb. A total stand out piece, and one that acts as much of a piece of art as it does a lamp. Perfect for home or business. This lamp would make a real impact in a high end retail setting. The same lamp was recently featured in A24 production 'Uncut Gems', in the main characters lavishly modern apartment.
