Product Story

Grashoppa floor lamp - Designed by Greta M. Grossman

Step into the world of timeless design with the Grashoppa Floor Lamp, an iconic piece created by the pioneering designer Greta M. Grossman in 1947. Part of GUBI's iconic Grasshoppa collection, this floor lamp pays abstract homage to the insect it shares its name with, captivating with its angular and striking shape, reminiscent of a grasshopper's bent legs. As unique and innovative today as it was 70 years ago, the Grashoppa Floor Lamp stands as a true testament to the enduring power of visionary design.

Crafted with precision and artistry, the lamp features a tubular steel tripod stand that tilts backward, infusing a sense of life and dynamism into its design. The elongated conical shade, made of aluminium, is thoughtfully ball-jointed onto the arm, offering the freedom to direct the light with minimal glare, while ensuring both ambient and directional illumination. Its versatile design makes it a perfect addition to living rooms, home offices, or any contemporary space seeking a touch of elegance and functionality.

The Grashoppa Floor Lamp boasts a shade diameter of 15cm, a shade height of 23.3cm, and an overall width of 43.5cm, making it a sleek and compact lighting solution. With an overall height of 125.3cm, it stands tall, commanding attention and becoming an object of fascination in any room it graces.

A true feat of design engineering, the tubular flexible arm can be effortlessly bent in all directions, and the shade can rotate 360°, giving you complete control over the direction of light, adding to its versatility and functionality.

Greta M. Grossman's whimsical design language is embodied in the distinctive elongated conical shade, offering a beautiful blend of organic and modern aesthetics. The powder-coated aluminium base, weighted with a cast iron ballast, ensures stability and durability, while the powder-coated stand and shade complete the ensemble with a touch of contemporary flair.

The Grashoppa Floor Lamp not only provides a perfect, functional addition but also doubles as a sophisticated light object that adds an artistic dimension to any space. Experience the timeless allure of the Grashoppa Floor Lamp and embrace the remarkable legacy of Greta M. Grossman, whose designs have become collectible classics, celebrated and coveted by design enthusiasts worldwide.

Bulbs Explained

IP Rating

IP (Ingress Protection) rating relates to how resistant the light is to moisture and dust. The higher the IP rating, the more protected the light is. Bathroom and outdoor lights should be at least IP44 rated so that they are protected from splashes and weathering

LED Colour Temperature

‘Colour temperature’ relates to the colour shade of the light, measured in Kelvins (K). There are 4 main LED light colours to choose from:

Very warm (under 2700K) and warm white (2700-3200K) indicates a yellow tint for subtle, cosy lighting better suited to bedrooms and living rooms.

Daylight bulbs (4000K-5000K) imitate natural light making them a versatile choice for any space.

Cool white (4000K-5000K) indicates more of a blue hue and bright lighting which complements more modern and contemporary decor, ideal for bathrooms and kitchens.

Types of Bulb

With many different types of bulb to choose from, picking the right one is key. We’ve highlighted some of the most popular to help you select the right one for your fitting and room.

Bayonet cap (BC) bulbs come with a push and twist locking mechanism and are usually used for mains voltage lamps, though they may also be found in some low voltage halogen lamps. The Small bayonet cap (SBC) is typically 15mm in diameter, while the Bayonet cap is 22mm in diameter.

Edison screw cap (E type) bulbs are the standard screw-in light bulb used widely around the world. These are available in a range of different sizes and apply to different types of bulb including LED, CFL and incandescent. The two most popular are E14 and E27.

GU and GZ types are the most common spotlight bulbs used in a wide range of our lighting. GU4 and GU5.3 are pins, while GU10 and GZ10 have locking mechanisms that require a push and twist to fit the bulb. The GU10 has a slight bevel whereas the GZ10 does not and has a more square base. These bulbs typically come in Halogen or LED versions.
