The distinctive Cobra Wall Lamp is designed by Greta M. Grossman in the 1950s, taking its name from the oval shade, playfully resembling the snake’s hood.

THE ICONIC DESIGN
Greta M. Grossman's delicate design language beautifully comes to live with the lamp's simple, soft-edged form - light and iconic in expression whilst equally aesthetic and useful. The flexible shade can be adjusted 360 degrees, which creates a soft light that spreads up the wall, making it the perfect illumination for entrances and hallways.
GRETA M. GROSSMAN
Greta M. Grossman (1906–1999) was an innovator in the male-dominated worlds of mid-century industrial and interior design and architecture, gaining international recognition for her work.
She was born and educated in Sweden, setting up Studio – her first combined store and workshop – in Stockholm the same year she married musician Billy Grossman. With the onset of the Second World War, the pair emigrated to California where she worked as an architect. She was among the first to bring the Scandinavian modern aesthetic to southern California’s burgeoning modernist scene.
