Abstract: An adjustable device is provided for supporting articles, such as lamps and potted plants. The device includes a stationary support member which is fixedly attached to a wall or other upstanding foundation. A coupling mechanism is movably connected at a first end to one end of the stationary support member. A swivel member is connected to a second end of the coupling mechanism by means of a pivot member to permit rotation of the swivel member along an arcuate path in a generally horizontal direction. In addition, a chain or cord interconnects the swivel member and the stationary support member to permit vertical movement of the swivel member relative to the stationary support member. Thus, a lamp or plant holder may be secured to the chain for convenient movement to a number of desirable, alternative positions.
