Catalogue Note
This table lamp is believed to have been created originally for Kevin, George Nakashima's son. The lamp was then exhibited in the Minguren Museum, one of the buildings built by Nakashima in 1965 on his grounds in New Hope to display rare wood samples, drawings and artwork by Ben Shahn.
