Balance lamp - B-Type
Balance lamp - B-Type
Free UK delivery until Christmas.
Sculptural desk lamps that play with gravity. Handmade in Yorkshire and delivered to you in 3-5 days.
This family of desk lamps can be extended or retracted by gently rolling them forward or backward. Repositioning the big brass weight on the rocker re-balances the lamp to a new equilibrium. Angle adjustments are made by sliding the upper brass counterweight along the horizontal bar.
Lamp adjustment can now be a satisfying and playful experience.
This B-Type Balance lamp has a simple clean design with a strong sense of scientific purpose and perhaps just a little bit of the cheeky about it.
Balance lamps are hand-engineered in the North of England out of anodised aluminium, brass, stainless steel, cast iron and hardwoods. They are approximately 46 cm tall and come supplied with a standard GU4 12V DC LED bulb and plug-style power supply. Available for UK and international power sources. Each lamp is individually numbered.
Balance lamps have been designed to last for generations and are delivered in environmentally friendly packaging. They have a five year guarantee for all parts and workmanship.
They are available to order now and can be delivered to you in 3 to 5 days*. Free UK delivery. International charges may vary. We will email you before posting. Note: Walnut lamps may have longer lead times.
If for any reason you are not happy with your Balance lamp we will refund all your money and arrange for the item to be collected from you.

BLOTT WORKS is a small workshop based in the Pennines, founded by artist/engineer Dan Morrison in 2014, hand-making sculptural lamps and clocks with a mechanical aesthetic and a playful character.
Sculptural. Functional. Playful.

“Well, all I can say is the lamp was beyond a triumph!! I wasn’t with my nephew when he opened it, but my sister sent the message “only half way through opening lamp and he is shrieking with delight!” They then sent me a picture with the words “Genuinely awesome!””
“I met Dan several years back at his first major London show and was blown away by the visual impact of his creations and his down to earth friendliness. An exhibition followed a year later at Sunbury Gallery and was hugely popular . I had to own a piece and bought the Clamshell light which is a constant pleasure and talking point .
I love the way Dan’s designs have the essence of British industrial heritage combining solid metal with wood to create these tactile and futuristic functional works of art that are timeless.”
