This “Lighthouse” table lamp by James Evanson from the 1984 is wired for US outlets and has been repaired / restored by the Selby House. Inspired by both modern architecture and design principles of the Memphis Group, these lamps received world-wide attention and became a symbol of the 1980’s. The “Lighthouse” includes customizable features, such as moveable acrylic pieces and wooden accessories, which makes them as much about lighting as creating an intimate, unique space.
