George Nelson created the \"Bubble Lamp\" line for Howard Miller in 1947. Howard Miller continued to sell the line throughout the late 1970\'s after which they were discontinued. George Nelson never named the different lamp designs and they were simply given numbers by Howard Miller.
The lamps originally were produced by the Howard Miller Clock Co. But after Howard Miller sold the lamp business in the late 1970\'s, it became property of Gossamer Designs in Lighting, whicheventuallywent out of business.
Modernica acquired the equipment used to make Bubble lamps through a bankruptcy sale, Frank Novak said, and set out to revive an abandoned product line. Modernica started to manufacture the Bubble lamps in 1999, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted trademarks including the use of the \"George Nelson\" and \"Nelson\" marks for lighting in 2010 and 2011.
One ironic claim emerged during research for this article. In a 1952 issue of Everyday Art Quarterly, an article states Nelson did not design the Bubble lamps. The article credits William Renwick, an associate in Nelson\'s firm, for the design.
