    George Carwardine invented the Anglepoise lamp. He introduced the desk lamp in 1931, and it quickly became popular. Prior to working in lighting design, Carwadine developed suspension systems for automobiles, and it was the springs used in these systems that inspired his now-iconic lamp.

    The Anglepoise lamp is iconic for a few reasons. For one thing, the lamp has a long, rich history that dates back to 1931, and modern versions display very few differences from the original fixture designed by George Carwardine. As a result, many people envision the Anglepoise first when someone mentions the term "desk lamp." In addition, the Anglepoise lamp is highly functional due to its hinged neck, which allows the adjustment of its position without having to use clamps or a tool. This innovative design was a major breakthrough and went on to influence the work of other lighting designers, thereby contributing to the Anglepoise's iconic status. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of Anglepoise lamps.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 24, 2021
    An Anglepoise lamp works on springs that are integrated in the joints, helping it to balance and hold its shape. These balanced-arm lamps are known to be energy-saving and among the first to use 25-watt bulbs.

    To tell if your Anglepoise is real, first look for the company's mark. You will normally find it stamped on an oval-shaped recessed area along the fork of the lamp. Since many replicas exist with the proper marks, you may wish to have the light evaluated by a licensed appraiser. Find a collection of expertly vetted Anglepoise lighting on 1stDibs.
