I am a fan of lamps ... i like to read ... and you know what ... i have visions ocassionally of me in my New England Lodge ... post fly fishing and walking the gundogs ... returning to the lodge ... log fire ... wife cosied up and fussing the dogs and there is my table with the battered / vintage ANGLE POISE lamp on it with my first edition Hemingway 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' next to it and a glass of Ardbeg whisky to warm the cockles and the heart ...
the crux of this story is the design classic ... the ANGLE POISE lamp ... i was looking at them last night with el presidente (my wife) and realised that i need one as my old one went missing 5 years BM (before marriage) ....
Margaret Howell sell the one that i love, designed in the 1930's by George Carwardine and updated and contemporised in the 1970's by Kenneth Grange ...
