Rare Three Step Anglepoise Lamp
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:31905 | Original/Reproduction: Original |
| Featured Refinements: Herbert Terry Anglepoise Lamp | Type: Desk Lamp |
The best of the anglepoise lamps and the most sought after. It has the slim line perforated shade and earthing bolt as to be expected with this lamp.
Stamped - The Anglepoise Patented in the principal countries of the world.
Made by Herbert Terry & Sons of Redditch in the early 1930's this is the first example of the classic 1227 desk lamp and is identified by its three step base.The lamp is almost 90 years old so condition is inline with this. expect chips to the paintwork a...nd flaking to the chrome elements. I have given it a light clean with a cloth and thats it, I like to keep items of age as close to as they were found as possible. I feel its much better to do this rather than clean them up to within an inch of their life!!The bulb holder is not the original holder but as far as I am aware thats the only thing thats not original on the lamp. The springs hold the lamp in position really well. I have had this lamp for a few years, rewiring it with near fabric cable and having the lamp professionally PAT tested, the certificate for this test has since expired so this is something that you may want to do. The lamp does work fine though.
