Anglepoise® | B Corp™

Thrilled to be involved in the story of lighting design 👍

Repair is at the heart of what we have always done at Anglepoise. It’s a simple act of love that connects people and things. We are thrilled to see that more customers are wanting their lighting companions rewired and repaired. So they can give them many more years of faithful service. So we have extended the offering to cover the Original 4 spring Anglepoise designs. The model 1208 / 1209. Here is a short video of Lauz rewiring the first one. It didn’t have a shade. So we went off and made some new tooling based on the original drawings and made some more. So, in a world of obsolescence, this really is a shining symbol of permanence ✊ A link in the comments for our repair and rewire services ... #repair #guaranteedforlife #anglepoise #abandondarkness

Another one from the archive. For all you French Horn players out there😉. Or anyone who likes to play a musical instrument really. 'Light just where it's wanted. Perfectly angled. Perfectly poised.' Some things never change. Usefulness and practicality still run at the core of everything we do today. (And tomorrow for that matter)👍 #doonethingwell #anglepoise #timelessdesign #throwbackthursday

Some things never change ... ... It's as true today as it was in this 1970's brochure. #doonethingwell #anglepoise #timelessdesign #throwforwardthursday

A classic for a throwback Thursday. One of our old adverts from the 50's showcasing the flexibility of the Anglepoise lamp. "Flexible as your finger ... stays put at any angle" Something we still try and stay true to in our designs, even today. #throwbackthursday #anglepoise #abandondarkness #guaranteedforlife

Repair is at the heart of what we have always done at Anglepoise. It’s a simple act of love that connects people and things. In the old factory there was an employee called Alf Jenkman, and for nearly 40 years he was responsible for repairing and servicing lamps for customers. He became pretty darn good at it too, and it created a simple saying at the time, if you needed something doing “Ask Alf …” Well for years now; not quite 40 we must add! The baton has passed firmly onto another individual, and the problem solving mantra has changed to “Ask Lauz … “ She has worked away and the numbers of small repairs and rewires keep on growing, as do the smiles on our customers faces. The age of our products keep on increasing too, many now hitting 90 years young, and with this love and attention are still going strong. So, in a world of obsolescence, this really is a shining symbol of permanence. All thanks to Lauz. #repair #guaranteedforlife #anglepoise #abandondarkness

The Anglepoise has inspired cartoonists, artists and musicians. A 1984 reissue of A Can of Bees, an album by the post-punk English band The Soft Boys, features a live version of their curious song, (I Want To Be An) Anglepoise Lamp. #throwbackthursday #music #softboys #anglepoise #abandondarkness #guaranteedforlife

Planning Your Summer Holidays, but can't take your loyal lighting companion with you ... Well all is not lost. You can take our lovely book with you instead. 😀 Full of inspirational storytelling to enhance your much earned break 💡 Like all good stories, the Anglepoise legacy is worth repeating and sharing. It all began in 1932 with the ingenious George Carwardine and his groundbreaking spring mechanism. The story is lovingly documented by Jonathan Glancey in our book, 'Spring Light.'
