Decades ago, painter John Lyle and art dealer Mark Umbach resolved to do something about not being able to find a certain lamp-- they made the Pompeiian. "We rode in on the Eighties wave for Neo-Classicism," says Lyle, a former painter turned company designer. "We used to sell a Pompeiian a day; now it’s one every few weeks." The catalog now numbers nearly 50 unimpeachable lamp designs for table and floor available through Holly Hunt. Lyle divides his time between New York and the L&U business office in Islesboro, Maine, a sort of "offshore 'Mayberry RFD.' We love it there." (via Elements of Living)
