The most iconic products Greta Grossman designed in the 40's and 50's were the Gräshoppa floor lamp and the Cobra floor and table lamps. Grossman was highly influenced by European Modernism, which had been imported to the US by influencial architects, such as Walter Gropius (founder of the Bauhaus) and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Grossman, in turn, played a significant role in defining the aesthetic of mid-century Californian Modernism.
The G10 lamp, designed by Greta M. Grossman, is another of her undiscovered designs. It was produced in her native Sweden as the 10th product for the manufacturer Bergboms, therefore the name G10. It features a matte black aluminum shade with a glass diffuser to cover the bulb and includes ceiling canopy. Textile cord matches shade. The G10 pendant should be hardwired to a standard electric junction box by a certified electrician.
Today, Grossman's product designs are highly collectible and are sold at auctions all around the world. Grossman's products are unique, modern classic designs.

Greta Grossman was one of the few female designers to gain prominence during the mid-20th century architectural scene in Los Angeles. Her early exposure to European Modernism deeply influenced her later architectural work, seen as a synthesis of European ideals and the culture with the lifestyle of Southern California.
