As the name suggests, desk lamp is a type of task lamp, which is specifically designed for a desk. Back in the early 1900s, when lamps were yet to be invented, it was quite challenging to light up a desk after dark. That became a problem as many people began to face the difficulty in writing, studying, and completing other simple tasks. In 1932, George Carwardine unveiled the first-ever desk lamp — a 4-Spring Anglepoise lamp with a directional arm. It was only then that the first antique and vintage desk lamp was introduced. Desk lamp became a huge success and one of the major necessities in every household, and workplace. Antique and vintage desk lamps gradually became a part of the modern interior.
The lamp is not only known for its functionality but also for its easy-to-use features. The lighting’s focus can be easily shifted when necessary. Since the light beams down at the surface, it particularly highlights the desired object. Desk lamps can be found on various online auctions for sale.
