When automotive engineer, George Carwardine chanced upon a formula for a new kind of spring, he had created the blueprint for a groundbreaking articulated task lamp that could combine ultimate flexibility with perfect stability. Two years later the Original 1227™ desk lamp was born.

The 1227 is part of an exemplary nine-piece collection designed for different locations, from table and wall to ceiling and floor. Each piece is available in classic colours, including Linen White and Dove Grey, and comes with toning fabric-covered cord and traditional chrome fittings. The Original 1227™ Collection has always boasted unrivalled functionality; now it boasts unrivalled choice too.

The Original 1227™ (launched in 1935) pioneered the unique constant spring technology to deliver ultimate flexibility and perfect balance. Today this timeless, classic design enjoys iconic design status.
The mini table lamp version keeps the same shade and basic form but adds a curved stem turning a desk lamp into a beautiful bed-side light.

There’s a lot of Anglepoise® heritage packed into the 52cm of metal and cable that make up the Original Mini 1227™ table lamp. The classic shade is instantly recognisable, and the new pyramid-shaped base, with its highly practical integral switch, breaks new ground without losing any of the original Anglepoise® spirit.
