About the Item

Herbert Terry Anglepoise Model 1227 Black Two Step Articulated Desk Lamp 1930's Model 1227 (1938 - 1968) - Has a two tier base, with a steel cover. - The forks were mainly cast as a whole component with ‘The Anglepoise - Made by Herbert Terry & Sons’ cast into the fork. - The springs often had metal caps added so that the spring length could be adjusted changing the spring tension. 1931: Automotive engineer, George Carwardine developed a theoretical concept for balancing weights using springs, cranks and levers. Using special springs with a ‘constant tension’ quality developed by Terry’s, Carwardine chanced upon the means to create an articulated task lamp that could combine ultimate flexibility with perfect balance.
