The Anglepoise lamp is a balanced-arm lamp designed in 1932 by British designer George Carwardine.
I mistakenly posted this in the wrong place, earlier.
This type of lamp has been around for a long time .. we used to have one attached to hubby's drafting table (both, long gone).
I came across the word in a book written by a Scotsman (Ian Rankin - Rebus series).
