People typically associate the name ‘Anglepoise’ with desk lamps; but if you’re searching for a floor reading lamp it may surprise you to find that we also have a series of striking designs in this category. Once you’ve seen them, we think you’ll agree that our floor reading lamps are anything but run of the mill. If you’re seeking a floor reading lamp with style and verve, we believe we’ve got just what you’re looking for.

Due to the enormous span of light direction Anglepoise lamps permit, they create superb ambient room lighting which can be altered to striking effect. Take, for instance, our gracefully elegant Type 1228 Lamp with Floor Stand. Launched in 2004, this beautiful floor reading lamp features a transparent shade available in five colours (white, orange, grey, blue and green) and is equally at home on a floor stand bathing an armchair in soothing light as it is perched on a desktop illuminating a document.

We’ve also adapted our classic Type 75 lamp with its hallmark ‘classical chic’ design contours originally fashioned by George Carwardine in the 1930s. This model has been subtly revamped by designer Kenneth Grange, creating an iconic futuristic-traditional fusion of styles. With its floor pole and table base, it can either be used as a striking floor reading lamp beside the sofa or a desktop light in the office.

Finally, our bold and breathtaking Anglepoise Giant might look like a desk lamp, but at three times the size of the original George Carwardine design, it’s the daddy of floor reading lamps. Poised on an aluminium base with castors for ease of movement, it also comes supplied with a light bulb and dimmer switch for a range of ambient effects.

Our floor lamps aren’t just reading lamps; they’re an aesthetic experience, too.
