The auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: £5

Estimated price: £5 - £10

Buyer's Premium:

A vintage articulated desk lamp featuring a vibrant red painted finish. The design follows a balanced-arm mechanism with twin support arms and dual steel tension springs, characteristic of mid-century modern industrial lighting. The lamp consists of a circular weighted base and a flared trumpet-style shade with a white-painted interior for light reflection. A black push-button toggle switch is integrated into the top of the lamp head. The item is fitted with a black flexible power cable and a standard UK three-pin plug. Although the design is synonymous with the Anglepoise Model 90 or Apex 90, no manufacturer marks are visible on the base or arm components.


Condition report:

The lamp is in good vintage condition with minor surface wear and small scuffs to the red paintwork, primarily around the base and articulating joints, consistent with age and use. The tension springs are intact and functional. Electrical components are untested; it is recommended that the item is inspected and PAT tested by a qualified professional before use.
