AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In good condition with minimal signs of wear, the Anglepoise Model 90 is a classic desk lamp produced between 1973 and 1985. Born as the successor to Model 75, it introduced technical innovations to comply with the era's new British safety standards, including a reinforced insulation system that eliminated the need for a grounding wire. The Model 90 design simplified the engineering of the previous models to make it more suitable for mass production and home use.
Base: Round with a compact footprint and a steel housing, weighed down by an internal cast-iron counterweight.
Arms and Joints: Made from flat strips of steel rather than tubulars. The fork is a single folded steel strip, fixed with a visible nut and bolt.
Shade: Conical trumpet-shaped ribbed shade, equipped with a push-button switch on the top.
Materials: Uses nylon components in the linkage joints and at the center of the upper hinge to promote smooth movement.
Dimensions: Has a maximum adjustable height of about 83–90 cm and a base diameter of 18 cm.
