I've got a lamp pretty much just like that. If you like, I can take some 
pictures of it and you can change the model enough to no longer resemble 
some company's mascot.

It might be too close to someone's logo to post that lamp with the ball. 
But change the shape of the lamp's base and the lamp it self wouldn't be 
a big deal. A quick search of the big box stores webpages found several 
lamps just like that one. Googleing for 'architect lamps' found dozens 
of them.

My opinion, as a non-expert in anything legal, make a demo picture that 
doesn't resemble Luxo and if the code is all yours then there isn't a 
problem at all.
