Early Anglepoise 1227 Lamp

Code: 10413

Dimensions:

A exceptional & scarce vintage Anglepoise 1227 lamp by Herbert Terry & Sons. A stunning & very rare lamp, all original & featuring a large heavy cast iron base, original cream paintwork & chrome plated steel arms. This model really was where it all began for the iconic Herbert Terry 1227 or 'two step' lamp, production started in around 1938 & this 'crossover' model featured elements from both the earlier 'three step' & later 'two step' models. The slimmer profile, perforated shade, chrome arms & simple, 'un-capped' springs set this apart from later models and this lamp is an exceptionally original example.  A handsome & timeless lamp wired in twisted black flex via the original 'Crabtree' Bakelite bulb holder.
