Lamp by Arthur Jacobs, San Francisco

For years, I only knew about the Jacobs lamp in the top photo. I was digging around recently and it turns out that Jacobs also designed this lamp in 1954 and the one below.  Jacobs for Modeline, 1959

Van Keppel Green chairs and table at Fallingwater, outside in the snow. That just doesn't seem right. California chairs like the sun.

Most of the furniture in the house are originals by Frank Lloyd Wright. I wonder how and when the VKG furniture ended up there?They're too late to be original to the house. I'm thinking Kaufmann liked the VKG he had at his Neutra pad in Palm Springs and decided he wanted a little CA in the PA.Source: Wright House
Here is Frozenwater today. I hope they brought the VKG in.
