A Chrome Plated Ball Line Floor Lamp – Charles Hollis Jones

This exceptional Charles Hollis Jones chrome adjustable floor lamp exemplifies the refined glamour and technical precision for which the designer is celebrated. Originally commissioned for the iconic actress Lucille Ball in the 1960s, this lamp reflects Jones’s mastery of sculptural minimalism and luxurious materials. Crafted in chrome-plated metal, the lamp features a sleek cylindrical form with a weighted base that provides excellent stability while maintaining a visually light, architectural presence. The base measures 10 inches in diameter and is enhanced by an additional articulated chrome cylinder measuring 2.5 inches in diameter and 5.5 inches high, adding subtle detail and balance to the overall design. The height adjusts smoothly from 35.5 inches to 56.5 inches, allowing the Charles Hollis Jones chrome adjustable floor lamp to function beautifully as a reading lamp, side lamp, or the classic bridge-table lamp for which this form is traditionally known. Elegant, versatile, and historically significant, this piece embodies the sophisticated modernism of mid-century American design and remains as relevant today as it was in its original commission.
