This vintage industrial-style task lamp features a flared conical metal shade with circular ventilation holes positioned around a top-mounted push-button on/off switch. The lamp is designed with a dual-arm articulated mechanism supported by twin external steel tension springs, which is mounted to a weighted rectangular base. The entire unit is finished in a cream-coloured paint. The lamp is fitted with a white electrical flex and a standard British bayonet (B22) bulb holder. While the design is highly consistent with the L-1 model by Luxo, designed by Jac Jacobsen, no maker’s marks or labels are visible in the provided images.
Condition report:
The lamp shows visible signs of age and regular use, including surface scuffs, scratches, and minor areas of paint loss and oxidation across the shade, arms, and base. The base exhibits some staining and surface wear. The springs appear functional but may require cleaning. The electrical wiring is vintage and has not been tested; the lamp must be inspected and PAT tested by a qualified professional before use.
