Ever heard of a TV lamp?
In the 1950s, the presence of television increased in middle-class households. In its infancy, television was already showing itself as a central part of the modern home. “TV” was changing life in the same way personal computers did three decades later, and like most technological inventions, there were concerns. Many believed that watching television in a darkened room could cause eye damage. Considering that consumers were accustomed to watching movies in darkened theaters, it was only natural for the tradition to carry over to home viewing. Even the earliest televisions emitted relatively low light, so watching in dim light was almost necessary. Soon, many televisions were adorned with a new accessory, a ceramic, illuminated figurine… the TV lamp. The ambient light created by these lamps seemed to reduce eye strain and allowed viewing without guilt. TV lamps soon became an essential addition to family television. Although they dominated as favorite household items for only about 10 years, their design significance still influences today. TV lamps came in thousands of variations from hundreds of manufacturers, and although made from various materials, the vast majority were ceramic, coated with a glossy glaze in one of the popular colors of that decade. Most of these charming household sculptures represented members of the animal kingdom (horses, deer, dogs, birds, domestic cats, and the ever-popular panther), some depicted people, while others were purely exercises in abstract design.
