A compact polished aluminium shade directs a focused beam across desks, drawings, and detailed work areas. Originally developed in the 1940s for navigators aboard maritime patrol aircraft, the Original 315 draws on the spring-balanced mechanism pioneered for the Anglepoise lighting system. Recreated using archival drawings, the lamp features an adjustable arm that allows the light to be positioned precisely where needed. Integrated mounting points hold the included notebook clip and pen holder, keeping frequently used items within easy reach. Its adjustable construction and practical accessories make it well suited to desks, studios, worktables, and reading areas.
