Balance lamp - A-Type
Balance lamp - A-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 A-Type Balance lamp is based on a golden ratio spiral giving it a flavour of natural forms or swirling galaxies.
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.

Put something truly sculptural on your desk!
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.
Design Guild Mark Finalist 2023. We were thrilled to present our Balance lamp designs to the judges in the final round of this prestigious British design award. It was a great honour to stand among the UK's top designers, and reaching this stage underscores our commitment to excellence. More info about DGM…
“We have been big fans of BLOTT works for several years now and have a bit of a collection. The combination of engineering and design is beautiful, eccentric and the objects are made with great care and love by Dan”
“Sometimes when you buy a relatively expensive item after a few weeks ‘buyer remorse’ sets in but I can honestly say that I love my clock and lamp and appreciate them a little more each day, constantly seeing more interest and intrigue in them. The only downside is you do tend to spend a lot of time just staring at them.
I can really recommend Dan and his creations and if you like what you see go ahead and buy it, you won’t regret it.”
