first released in 1935, the anglepoise model 1227 desk lamp was designed by british engineer george carwardine. Inventing the 4-spring lamp in 1932, carwardine renovated his invention by creating the 3-spring mechanism to bring the anglepoise lamp for home use, creating an instant icon that has lasted in its original design to the current day. The clever 3-spring allows the lamp to be positioned and angled with a light touch that then keeps its position, making a perfectly balanced and functional lamp. Perfect for any table tops and desks in the home and workplace, this classic, adjustable lamp is a must have and will fit perfectly in any décor. This lamp is finished in the scarcer green paint colour way.
