Designed by George Carwardine, this particular design was first introduced in 1938, proof that good design really can stand the test of time. Looking just as modern today as it did 80 plus years from its first manufacture. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an engineer the inadequacies of available lighting products were all too clear to Carwardine, prompting him to set about developing a frictionless mechanism that could balance and direct light to any position. Essentially, he wanted to create a lamp that was as versatile as a human arm, having instant flexibility and, more elusively, the ability to hold the chosen position, all at the touch of a finger. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned originally as commercial task lighting, however the market for home and office use soon became apparent. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith visible wear including chips to the paintwork, marks, scratching and discolouration. The lamp came to us extremely dirty, but after a thorough clean, despite wear is looking lovely once more. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lamp has been fully rewired with approximately 240cm of 3 core twisted cream nylon flex and has been fitted with a new chrome lamp holder (standard B22 bulb) and 3 pin UK plug. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the many adjustable positions of the lamp, it's quite a tricky one to measure but here's a few approximate measurements, feel free to get in touch should you require any more. At the tallest point with everything standing to attention\/upright, the light measures 92cm tall, while the base of the lamp measures 15cm square. Finally, the cone measures 16cm long with a diameter of 14.5cm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Absolutely Nice Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55595327226232,"sku":"1966","price":185.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/0844\/0925\/files\/VintageRedHerbertTerryandSonsAnglepoiseLampModelNo1227-2.jpg?v=1783007468","url":"https:\/\/absolutelynice.co.uk\/products\/vintage-red-herbert-terry-sons-anglepoise-lamp-model-no-1227","provider":"Absolutely Nice Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
