Original Early Herbert Terry Anglepoise Lamp Model 1227 (1935 - 1938) in Yellow
“The Anglepoise is a minor miracle of balance, a quality in life we do not value as we should” — Sir Kennith Grange
Original Early Herbert Terry Anglepoise Lamp Model 1227 (1935 - 1938) in yellow.
A striking piece of British industrial heritage, this vintage Anglepoise engineers task lamp by EDL features a classic articulated arm design, robust steel construction and a yellow enamel shade with authentic wear and patina, condition is used with some age wear to the paint but this give the lamp some amazing character, fully functional with a British plug.
Full extended hight of the lamp is 84 cm.
please take care to look at all the images provided,
Originally designed for machinist benches and engineering workstations, this lamp was built for performance – durable, adjustable and made to withstand heavy use, other institutions like the BBC or Ministry of Defence. The design's adaptability and focused illumination made it suitable for environments requiring precise task lighting,
As the war progressed, Terry & Sons turned their focus onto lighting for planes producing lamps for all types of warplanes, most famously the Lancaster Bomber. The lamps were used as navigational workstation lamps meaning that important considerations had to be taken into account — robustness, compactness, adjustability and, of course, light weight. There was also a need to avoid any adverse magnetic effects on other sensitive equipment and the lamp was required to accommodate the forces and vibration that an aircraft would encounter.
