Ansel Desk Lamp

$195

Blackened steel on a weighted disc base, 16 inches. Two friction pivots, so it holds position without a knob.

Finish

Demonstration only. No bag or order is created.

Why it is in the collection

Friction pivots instead of knobs, so adjusting it takes one hand.

In detail

Blackened steel on a weighted disc base, 16 inches at full extension with a 14-inch reach. Two friction pivots hold position without a knob to tighten.

Friction instead of thumbscrews means the lamp moves with one hand while the other stays on the page. It is a small difference that shows up several times a day.

Three and a half of its five pounds are in the base, so the arm can reach its full extension without the lamp tipping toward the work.

Measured, not estimated. Every figure is the one we would give you over the phone.
