The Terry family have been continually producing Anglepoise® lamps since they were invented in 1932 by George Carwardine. In 1934 the refined three spring version was introduced and subsequently its form and function have become iconic benchmarks. When it was launched the world had never seen anything quite like it, and this particular design inspired generations of users including The Queen, Roald Dahl and Lloyd George. In its journey it has come to represent something quintessentially British.
More recently we have been collaborating with industrial designer Kenneth Grange and fashion designer Margaret Howell, on different projects. This year we are thrilled to be celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the first 1227 Anglepoise® lamp. To mark this occasion we shall be reissuing the original lamp. This product is featured on a Royal Mail stamp celebrating ten British Design Classics such as the Mini, Concorde, the Routemaster bus, and the Underground map.
