British firm Hadrill & Horstmann created some of the most memorable and innovative lamps and lighting solutions of the 20th century.
Not about the follow the trend of the spring loaded anglepoise lamp designed by George Carwardine for Herbert Terry in the 1930s, Hardrill and Horstmann instead opted to create a barrel weighted counterbalance mechanism, creating a memorable and elegant lamp that helped immortalise the designers far beyond the standard offerings that came before them.
These lamps have affectionately and appropriately become known as 'Rollers', with a seamless fluid movement these lamps are just as satisfying to move as they are to look at.
In general good condition with wear commensurate with age. We've had two parts like for like engineered that were missing, including the bolt that holds the lamp to the base and the part that holds the wire as it exits the lamp.
The lamp has been fully rewired with 3 core twisted cream nylon flex (approximately 214cm), complete with new chrome lamp holder (B22) and 3 pin UK plug.
Due to the many adjustable positions of the lamp, it's quite a tricky item to measure but here's a few approximate measurements to get you going, feel free to get in touch should you require any more. At the tallest point with everything standing to attention/upright, the light measures 87cm while the base of the lamp measures 15cm square. Finally, the cone measures 14cm long with a diameter of 13cm.
