Designed by Bill Curry in the 1960s, the Stemlite Wall Lamp has been out of production
for many decades. Now, GUBI has restored the great American designer’s vision for a
wall-mounted addition to his iconic Stemlite Collection.
The Stemlite Collection was inspired by the strong yet slender stems that support
flower heads in nature. It comprises a die-cast aluminium base, a steel arm evocative
of a tulip stem, topped with a mouth–blown glass globe, and an internal dimmer switch
that can be adjusted to set the perfect level of ambient lighting within an interior space.
The new Stemlite Wall Lamp appears to grow organically out of the wall, with a steel
arm that extends directly outwards before turning up 90 degrees to be topped with
a bulbous frosted glass shade in keeping with the rest of the Stemlite Collection.
Developed by GUBI from Curry’s original drawings after more than half a century, the
Stemlite Wall Lamp joins two table lamps, two floor lamps and a pendant, to complete
the Stemlite Collection. It will be available in Black Chrome.
