About Michael Lax:
"In 1954, Lax went to Finland, on a Fulbright Fellowship, where he learned Scandinavian modern design. He was hired by Russel Wright, in 1956, to work on a series of dinnerware designs. Lax did freelance work until 1960 when he began to work on enameled cast iron cookware for Copco; this was his first break as a solo designer. Lax designed a line of cast-iron and porcelain enamel cookware for Copco including a 1962 enamel-coated teakettle with a bent teak handle which became one of his most recognizable pieces. More than one million of these teakettles were sold before it was discontinued in the 1980s.
Another of Lax's well-known pieces was a low-voltage, high-intensity lamp that he designed for Lightolier in 1965. The lamp, named the Lytegem, had a minimalist design with a cube base and a ball reflector on a telescoping arm. Shortly after its release, the lamp had captured 10% of the market. It is now part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City."
