At 4.29 p.m. on 9th February, 1927 Eduard-Wilfrid Buquet feild his patent for parts of this table lamp, particularly the flexible joints, at the Ministère du Commerce et l'Industrie in Paris. Various versions were produced until the 1940's. Although little is known about Buquet we do know that he produced this lamp himself and probably designed it as well.

In his lamp from 1927, Édouard-Wilfrid Buquet interprets the search for balance as a shift in weight. In fact, he describes this poetic shift of light in his patent as a “rotatable light fixture with articulated joints”. In practical terms, this construction allows the light head to be moved into almost any conceivable position by slightly shifting the weights.

Each lamp is numbered consecutively and bears the TECNOLUMEN signet.

<p>Little is known about the life of Édouard-Wilfrid Buquet. He was born in France in 1866, but the time and place of his death is unfortunately a mystery. Research conducted in the 1970s revealed that he’d designed the “EB 27” double-arm desk lamp in 1925, handcrafting it from nickel-plated brass, aluminium and varnished wood. He was granted a patent by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce in Paris on 9 February 1927, especially for the flexible parts of his lamp.</p>
