Original 1227 Maxi Pendant

Anglepoise, founded in 1932 by British automotive engineer George Carwardine, has become a design icon with its innovative spring mechanism that allows for unparalleled flexibility and balance. The Original 1227, introduced in 1935, remains a classic and is celebrated for its timeless design.

Anglepoise's commitment to quality and sustainability is evident in their products, which come with a lifetime guarantee. As a Certified B Corporation, Anglepoise adheres to rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, ensuring ethical practices throughout their operations.

Their lamps have illuminated the homes of the Queen of England and have been featured in several James Bond films, showcasing their global appeal and versatility. With a history of collaborations with renowned designers like Sir Kenneth Grange and partnerships with cultural icons, Anglepoise continues to blend tradition with innovation, creating lights that are both functional and stylish​

The Original 1227™ Maxi Pendant takes George Carwardine’s iconic Anglepoise form and scales it up for spaces that call for a stronger architectural presence. At twice the size of the standard 1227 pendant, the Maxi delivers confident, focused illumination while retaining the clarity and balance that define the original design. Whether used as a single statement over a dining table or installed in a series across a larger space, it brings timeless character and visual weight without feeling overpowering.

Built from steel with a gloss-painted shade and ceiling rose, the Original 1227™ Maxi Pendant is designed for longevity rather than trend cycles. Precision-engineered fittings and compatibility with energy-efficient LED bulbs support a more sustainable approach to lighting—one rooted in durability, repairability, and long-term use. Like all Anglepoise designs, it’s an object made to be installed once and lived with for decades, aligning naturally with conscious interiors that prioritize quality and lasting design.

Your Anglepoise® lamp is a finely balanced product. To adjust the balance, place the lamp
on a level surface and carefully tighten the thumbwheels until the shade and arms support themselves in multiple positions. If further adjustment is required, use the hex keys to tighten the centre joint. To avoid damage caused by excessive force, we ask that you treat your lamp with due care. Prior to cleaning or maintenance, always switch off and disconnect the lamp from the electricity supply.
