Vintage Dazor
Floating
Fixture
Model: 2600 Task
Lamp/Desk Lamp
In 1938
Harry Dazey decided to
partner with Albert Perbal, a
Professor at Washington
University, to form a
new
company that
would produce Lamp Fixtures. Harry had been in the family business of
manufacturing Butter Churns.
Then he got the idea for the "Floating
Arm" portable lamp, today known as a table lamp. These portable lamps
were
also called task lamps, which is what
Harry choose to specialize in manufacturing for his new company.
In the beginning these Dazor lamps were
used as table lamps which brought in a demand great enough to require
a work force of twelve
employees. By the beginning of World War II, Dazor was producing a
highly
efficient lamp
at
lower costs
gaining the company a famous reputation. The government soon found out
that the traditional
overhead lighting was costly and the
Dazor Lamps were much more cost effective and able to help conserve
energy too.
The government saw the savings of using
Dazor Lamps
and replaced
the
overhead lighting where it was sensible to
do so. This allowed the Dazor Company to
grow
quickly.
Craftsmen,
Jewelers,
Artists, Dental and Medical Professionals and Electronics Manufacturers
just to name a few of the
industries
that can use and benefit from the high quality lighting that is a must
have for performance that exceeds standard
practices.
This still goes on today for the Dazor Compnay.
With extreme
attention to detail, designing done by a superbly high quality
engineering department and the use of very high
quality
components this has helped put Dazor as one of the premium lamp
manuafacturers in the world
This
Dazor
Floating Arm Fixture Model: 2600 Task Lamp or maybe known as a Desk
Lamp to some, was manufactured,
according to
the research done, in the 1960's as far as we can determine.
It has a heavy
weighted base to prevent it from tipping over when the Floating Arm is
extended in any direction.
Even though
this lamp is 50 plus years old, making it an antique, it still looks
great.
It has been
used so there is to be expected some normal wear, maybe chips,
scratches or a small dent.
There appears
to be some paint splatter on the light shade, not on the rest of the
lamp.
All damages
will be able to be seen in the pictures above.
This Dazor
Floating Arm Fixture Task Lamp or Desk Lamp, like we stated, is used in
excellent antique usable condition.
The Floating
Arm moves smoothly, without any abnormal looseness, it stays where you
put it until you move it again,
the lamp head
rotates left, right and moves up and down with ease, smoothness and it
stops and holds where you put it.
The switch
works great, it shows that it was a high quality original component, it
has no loosness, does not show excessive
wear and
operates the way it was designed to when it was first manufactured. The
cord is in excellent shape, no cracks, cuts,
abrasions or
bare conductors, the blades of the plug are excellent also, nice and
straight.
