    George Nelson

    George Nelson

    When writing about the course of his remarkable 50-year career, George Nelson described a series of creative "zaps" — moments of out-of-the-blue inspiration "when the solitary individual finds he is connected with a reality he never dreamed of."

    Nelson said that for a designer to deal creatively with human needs, "he must first make a radical, conscious break with all values he identifies as anti-human." Designers also must constantly be aware of the consequences of their actions on people and society. In fact, he declared that "total design is nothing more or less than a process of relating everything to everything." So he said that rather than specializing, designers must cultivate a broad base of knowledge and understanding.

    Nelson did so as few are able, and, with the help of well-timed zaps, he helped define modern, humane design.

    JUST WOW~~!

    This light is AMAZING! I did my research and picked Ylighting and could not be happier!

    I purchased the medium over the small Saucer Criss Cross Lamp and I am glad I did. I used a dimmable LED light bulb and it almost makes the light glow at night!

    This lamp is a perfect example of clean, simple, and timeless design.

    We now have two classic George Nelson designed lamps and love them equally. The lamps both help define the space they occupy. We love the look and the functionality of these classic lamps. They are a joy to look at, whether illumiated or not. These are happy optimistic sculptures. It's amazing that a design that is six decades old can look so futuristic. We have room in our future for more George Nelson anything.

    What a statement this makes!

    I came across this at a local lighting store after spending some time on the internet looking for just the right "look". Had they not inflated the price so significantly, I would have purchased it right away - however, a quick search on YLighting - a site I've purchased from before to full satisfaction - there it was, in stock and priced competitively - I immediately purchased. There was a delay in getting it installed as I waited on the electrician but boy the wait was worth it! This lamp is actually a "piece" - it's well constructed and illuminates the bedroom beautifully. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

    Love this chandelier

    I have a retro table and chairs in my dining room. The Saucer Criss Cross added the perfect touch to my decor. It puts out a soft light that is very pleasing for dining not bright and harsh.

    Criss Cross Saucer

    The Criss Criss Saucer pendant is the quintessential lighting statement for the urban sophisticate interior -by introducing a punch of mid century modern iconic design. Every room should have something iconic.

    Even better than I expected and I am using an LED bulb so I am also saving energy

    It now hangs over our dining room table. It is a beautiful sculpture that adds a bit of drama to the room. Works beautifully with an LED bulb. Great buy!

    I find this contemporary fixture fun and attractive.

    We are using the Saucer criss cross lamp in combination with two other lamps- the cigar and the pear- for a grouping over the dining table. Using varying heights, it helps to define the space in a layout that is completely open. The products arrived in fine condition and look excellent installed.

    Beautiful/Classic

    This light is great. It looks like it will stand the test of time. One of my clients thought it was too classic/traditional looking, but once it was installed she was like "YEAH, that looks great. I guess that is why it is a classic."

    A little bit of design history in my home!

    Love, love, love it! Had previously bought the saucer pendant several years ago for a different house. I was agonizing over what to hang over my dining room table in a new home- an old 1919 Seattle bungalow with 9 ft ceilings. The Nelson Criss-Cross Pendant looks fab - the perfect mix of modern design with classic architecture!

    Love it, Love it, Love it!!

    We wanted a unique lamp for the office, so we decided to try the Criss Cross lamp. It is a little more "funky" than the straight-wired lamps. We were not disappointed! Lamp arrived promptly, packaging was great, and directions to wire and hang are easy to follow. Recommend using a dimmer switch to set your mood. We like to watch it glow at night, it makes me smile!!

    We just purchased this fixture for over our dining table. We love it! It is a true classic, and will make us happy every time we turn it on. Y Lighting was so easy to order from, the fixture came in just over one week. We look forward to ordering again with Y Lighting.

    Great light

    I have wanted a Nelson Light for a long time and did some searching. Y Lighting had it at a great price along with the free shipping, so was a no brainer to order from them. They were easy to work with and went out of their way to assist me. Would order other items in the future if I need them.

    Great lamp

    This is a great classic lamp. It arrived in very secure packaging. We wanted to put it above our dining table but it turned out to be too small and it didn't quite seem right for our space. So we had to reluctantly return it. Return process was smooth.

    A work of art.

    The Criss Cross Saucer is our third Nelson Bubble Lamp purchase, and still we cannot get over its surprisingly beautiful shape, its glowing light, or the way in which it compliments just about anything we pair it with. A real gem.

    Saucer Criss Cross Lamp

    We just put up our Nelson bubble lamp and we like the design of this saucer criss cross lamp. However, it does seem like the cord is a little short (be careful where you hang it from as the ceiling height makes a difference on the overall look).

    Perfect for room with low ceiling

    It was very hard to find a stylish lamp for my apartment with an 8' ceiling. This lamp looks great. Light is very warm and friendly.

    (Only possible improvement: there's a cheap-looking white plastic part where the wire connects to the canopy - seems for an extra 20 cents they could have added a quality part in nickel or at least a more solid-looking plastic part).

    I never knew a lighting fixture could make me feel this way. I'm absolutely giddy over it! Our electrician easily installed it. Great quality, unique and it takes up to a 150 watt bulb so it's actually a functional chandelier. Best purchase I've made in a while!

    Even the electrician loved it!

    I,ve been living with a bare lightbulb in the ceiling fixture for 21 years! No kidding! But the wait was worth it. I bought the medium size lamp and hung it about 14 in. below our 9'5" ceiling. I wasn't sure if it would look right so close to the ceiling, but I took a chance... and it looks positively ethereal!

    Not like a lamp, but like something beautiful from another dimension. It floats in space. Everybody loves it!. I chose to use use a 75W incand. bulb rather than the 150W max, and the illumination level is perfect. Happy!

    We just love love love this lamp!

    We decided to try a Criss-Cross lamp for a different twist on the traditional Saucer style. It was very easy to install. We recommend a dimmer be used with the lamp. It gives off a wonderful, glare-free light at full wattage; turn the dimmer down to set the mood. We get a happy feeling every time we turn the lamp on, so we leave it on most of the time! Wonderful product and service!!

    We decided to try the Criss Cross Saucer for a different twist to the regular Saucer. We were not disappointed! The lamp arrived well-packaged, was easy to install, and gives off an incredible, glare-free light! Recommend installing a dimmer for the lamp. Crank it up for maximum lighting; turn it down to set the mood. Having this light on makes us happy, so it is usually lighting up our dining room! Great product, great Customer Service!

    Nelson Saucer Crisscross pendant light

    The pendant light was even more beautiful than I imagined . Very good quality shade and hardware, excellent illumination, and beautiful look. It makes my 60's home look hip...I am so pleased that I am considering a Nelson light for two other rooms.

    This is a beautiful light!

    I hung this fixture above my dining room table and it's beautiful. We've gotten a lot of compliments, the eye is drawn to it when you walk in the door. And, it gives off a soft glow even with our compact flourescent light bulb, which don't usually give off the warmest light. It did give off a plastic smell for the first few days, I maybe should have let it "air out" outside before hanging it, but otherwise it's perfect!

    I feel that this crisscross white lamp has added a refreshing look to our old dining room and makes it look bigger, modern & charming by complementing our newly painted warm wall colors.

    Pros: Bought the lamp from YLighting 3 weeks ago and it arrived within 10 days. It met our expectations of helping bring a 21 century look to our dated set up of the 80s and the results are very pleasing.

    Perfect mid-century statement at the right price.

    We just installed this light over our kitchen table during a renovation that mixes modern with mid-century modern. It looks amazing. With a dimmer, the light has a nice glow at various levels. The construction is sound, it isn't as fragile as you might think. Highly recommended, and probably can't be beat for a designer mid-century piece at this price point.

    Your food will taste better as you dine under this amazing light!

    I've waited for this light for a very long time. We just remodeled and hanging this over our dining table was the perfect final piece for pulling the whole room together. It's sophisticated without being overly pretentious--a chance to marry unique design with function. I'm proud to say my children will grow-up knowing about George Nelson and his work. I did not install it, but my husband did not swear while doing it so take that for what it's worth....

    Elegant and cool at the same time

    This is our second purchase of the Nelson Criss Cross; our first stayed in a home we just sold. It has always been the perfect balance of design and everyday, formal and casual, hip and classic. My only caution for this particular version of the Nelson bubble lamps is that we found it overwhelmed by the room in our new home, even though the room itself is approximately the same size as the previous one. Because of it's smaller size & fewer vertical lines it has a delicate quality & is overpowered by heavy elements. We'll have to order a larger one for our room and find a new spot for the criss cross...

    I love my new criss cross light fixture!

    Overall, my experience with ordering my light fixture from YLighting was extremely positive. My order was shipped immediately. The light fixture I ordered was very reasonably priced and the quality/design was excellent...exactly what I had hoped for!

    Thank you YLighting!

    Crazy about my Nelson Criss Cross Lamp

    I'm so happy with the Nelson Criss Cross Lamp I purchased from YLighting. It's beautiful and perfect over our dining table. YLighting matched a price I found on the internet, even to the point of not charging me tax because the other company was out of state. Their service and product are unbeatable!

    The Criss Cross fixture is fantastic.

    I've wanted this dining area light for quite some time and Y Lighting had a sale on this and other Nelson light fixtures. The price was excellent and the fixture arrived, completely assembled, in short time.

    My dining area is now complete and the Criss Cross fixture is the icing on the cake.

    Comfortable with old and new

    Needed a pendant lamp that could fit a rather eclectic combination of old and new furniture (antique asian furniture/decor as well as modern Scandinavian), and the Criss Cross Lamp did the trick!

    I am also pleased with how the order was carried out and delivered.

    I wanted and needed to replace my old Bubble lamp of 40yrs But I wanted

    something slightly different and the Criss Cross Lamp was the perfect answer.

    It will certainly be noticed and admired.

    A modern classic

    The George Nelson Bubble Lamps are back with a vengeance. They're ubiquitous on teevee, where they're meant to convey that somebody is stylish and hip. They're not something you can pick up at the big box hardware depot.

    The Criss Cross Lamp is a little less obvious than the famous Saucer Lamp. It's a great design, and we get all sorts of compliments on ours.

    Great Buy!

    The George Nelson Criss Cross Lamp is spectacular - I keep getting great comments from friends on it. It is classisc modern - just love it. It came quick and was packed perfectly. YLighting also did a price match for me as I found another site that was cheaper. Without question - they helped me out and overall - it was a great experience. i will definately buy again from YLighting.

    Gorgeous!

    I was reluctant to purchase this fixture because I live in a formal, traditional home. However, I love the contrast in my dining room now between the fixtures and the furniture. It's also on a dimmer switch which is great for dinner parties. I love it!

    I am still in the process of receiving a replacement lamp, but I wanted to assure potential purchasers of YLighting's fantastic customer service. My first lamp arrived with imperfections. YLighting asked for photos and, after they received them, they put in an order for an immediate replacement. I couldn't have been happier with the immediate response and assurance that I wasn't stuck with a $350 defective lamp! Love the design.

    A classically beautiful design- exactly what we needed.

    The Criss Cross light perfectly completes our music room with its gently nuanced ambiance. Visually exciting while still comforting, it also has the benefit of providing a rounded absorptive surface that improves the room acoustics. On line purchase was smooth and convenient, packing/shipping were flawless. Thanks for easy access to a great product.

    Great Design

    This is a beautiful pendant - a classic. The inversions on the criss-cross aren't too pronounced, so it still retains that great saucer shape, but with a bit more visual interest than the plain saucer pendant. Great for a room that is a bit more hip, funky mid-century!

    Adds a lot of drama to a previously "plain" atmosphere.

    We went with the criss cross lamp for the added sculptural effect that the wires provide. 25" in diameter means that the light is the right size to make an statement. I'm not going to tell you about the great service or fast shipping (or the fact the we didn't have to pay taxes!) that we received from ylighting but focus more on the lamp itself. It's beautiful. We have it on a dimmer to tackle the 150W bulb, that way we can dial in the exact mood we want. The lamp is designed in a way that no part of the bulb is directly exposed to you so we can use it over a dinner table without blinding guests. Craftmanship is excellent and the light weights nothing. The material that they use to wrap is more of an hi-end, organic feel.... doesn't look like fabric sprayed with plastic. Quality is very good. It certainly adds the MCM vibe we were after and actually completes the look among the Eames DCW, LCW, Bertoias and Prouves we have around the house. I will totally recommend it. We love it and now we want more!

    I know you aren't supposed to be materialistic, but this light is literally uplifting and makes me HAPPY!

    We are delighted with our new George Nelson light fixture! Not only was it affordable, but the quality is fantastic and your customer service impeccable. It hangs over our breakfast table casting a calm, beautiful glow. Mr. Nelson was obviously an artist. Thank you for making such a beautiful fixture affordable...

    We do use a 150 watt bulb (which is the max). The amount of light it casts is fantastic with this bulb. We could probably use a 100 watt as well.

    The perfect lamp to warm up your modern home.

    I needed a lamp to add a sense of warmth and timeless beauty to a very stark and minimal modern home. The light that comes from this lamp is beautiful and soft. And to top it all off, Y Lighting's customer service is great and the super fast, free delivery is extremely helpful. You can't go wrong with this lamp in any home...

    perfect for our project - timeless.

    pkg. arrived well packaged and protected - no problems.

    I would imagine cleaning instructions could be had from mfgr./distributor? - these should be included.

    The bubble lamps are wonderful in design and take on different dimensions when lit at various levels of illumination - personally suggest always plan for a dimmer control.

    We purchased two of the Criss Cross Lamps for the living/dining rooms of our house currently being remodeled. We looked at lots and lots of light fixtures and felt we would never be able to afford something really great. The Criss Cross Lamp is beautiful and definitely has dramatic impact without costing thousands of dollars. We are very happy with the good service and speedy shipping from Y Lighting.

    My husband & I bought the Nelson lamp as a housewarming gift to ourselves. We were very happy with Ylighting--our lamp was priced better than other places, the shipping was free & it arrived much sooner than expected. In fact, the lamp arrived one day before I got the email that it had shipped! We are extremely pleased with our purchase & it looks wonderful in our new home!

    This is a classic, beautiful, minimalist lamp. More unique than the Nelson bubble lamp.

    This was my first time purchasing from Ylighting. I was blown away by the speed of delivery even though I chose standard shipping. Before I even had time to check the tracking number, the package was at more door. I will definitely buy from Ylighting again.

    Love the Bubbles.

    This is one of my favorite George Nelson Bubble Lights and YLighting offered the best price with free, quick shipping. I installed this over our dining room table and it was the perfect finishing touch to the space. Our kitchen, living room and dining area are all conjoined in an open layout with some very different design choices, but this lamp looks right at home and provides a striking modern accent to the whole house. Easy installation and a great bang for the buck. We simply love it!

    Beautiful Pendant!

    We ordered this for our dining room. It looks great in our 1800's home over our cherry shaker dining table. Nice soft light, perfect for dining and also for atmosphere in the room. Great service from YLighting - fast shipping, good price. AND we saw this light fixture on "Desperate Housewives" last week...

    Timeless Classic, fast delivery

    Came quicker than expected in great shape (packed well). A different material makes-up the skin than I had expected, but it great nonetheless! Definitely recommend Y Lighting and this lamp to add something a little different than the normal bubble lamp that everyone seems to have. I definitely dig the criss-cross pattern.

    And with no shipping/taxes, you can't beat the deal versus DWR, etc.

    This is a cool lamp with a little more unique twist than the usual saucer Nelson lamp and I think it's great.

    As a furniture designer/builder I have a keen eye for quality and construction of the Modernica made nelson lamps are up to par. The look is nothing new, but works so well in so many situations, combined with the relatively low cost it's hard to go wrong. We are happy with our purchase.

    Great classic choice

    I have dreamed of owning this lamp for a couple of years now. We recently moved into our first home and we finally had the place for the Crisscross Bubble Lamp. It is beautiful when the light is off, but even more beautiful when it is lit up. We used a compact Fluorescent bulb because we wanted a really white light and it looks fantastic. We just put it up and cannot stop staring at it! Ylighting was very fast and the lamp came in perfect condition. We went to our local DWR and with tax and shipping the lamp was $397, so going through Ylighting was a tremendous savings.

    A wonderful purchase!

    The website experience was great because it was very detailed with a schematic information which help me during the remodeling process.

    After I ordered the product, I received it about 3-4 days later. The product arrived unscathed, even the box looked was beautiful.

    I've owned other George Nelson lamps before, so I knew what I was getting. One thing that I do have to say however, is the product photography casted some shadows which made the product look more defined and attractive. However, in person, it looked a little different. (but still beautiful.)

    Chic Lighting

    We're architects, and when it came time to find just the perfect pendant light for the table in the breakfast room of our 1925 bungalow, we knew to immediately go to YLighting.com. We just clicked on the "Ceiling + Pendant Light" category and were able to narrow down our selection in moments. The Nelson Criss Cross Bubble Lamp is even more beautiful and finely crafted than the cut sheet suggests - a tremendous value from an excellent company. When we needed a longer cord for our 10'-0" ceiling, the folks at Modernica responded immediately and courteously. We're very pleased with our purchase all the way around.

    Beautiful Modern Classic at Affordable Price

    The lamp is even more dramatic and beautiful than I expected - a great addition in a large kitchen nook are. It's a bit like having design from the "Jetsons" in the house! I'm pleased enough with this purchase that I'm considering another shape of this design for a hall fixture.
