Early Anglepoise 1227 Lamp

SOLD

Code: 12179

Dimensions:

H: 65cm (25.6")



An original early vintage Anglepoise 1227 lamp by Herbert Terry & Sons.
A good honest example of this iconic lamp & a scarce earlier model, which 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 slightly earlier 'three step' & later 'two step' models. The slimmer profile, perforated shade, heavy duty arms (as opposed to later lightweight aluminium), simple, 'un-capped' springs & 'wrinkle' finish paintwork to the base & shade set this lamp apart from later models.
An exceptionally original example, wired in twisted black flex.
