c. 1920s-1930s; OC White Company - Worcester, MA, USA
Adjustable industrial task lamp with articulated arm and pivoting joints mounted to a weighted circular base. The steel arm extends outward from a central knuckle with a distinctive gear-like adjustment collar, allowing for smooth repositioning and hold. Original domed metal shade remains intact, showing a soft, even spread of light, while the lamp retains a cloth-covered red and tan cord that complements its utilitarian form. Surface shows a well-aged industrial finish with areas of oxidation and wear, reinforcing its workshop origins and long service life.
Founded in the late 19th century, the OC White Company became one of America's leading manufacturers of industrial and medical lighting, known for precision-built articulated lamps used in factories, drafting rooms, and laboratories.
Lamp: 31" L (arm including shade) x 24" H
