A 92-inch arc floor lamp with a black nickel steel frame and an avocado linen drum shade, designed by Peter Morelli for living rooms and home offices.
The Float Arc Lamp, originally designed in 1960 by Peter Morelli, is a modern statement piece that arches gracefully over your space. Its black nickel steel body and base provide stability, while the avocado linen shade adds a retro-modern touch. A built-in dimmer on the column lets you adjust brightness to suit any mood. This contract-grade lamp is crafted in Venice Beach, California, reflecting NOVA's century-long legacy of quality and design.
Best for
- Living rooms with seating areas where overhead lighting is needed without ceiling installation
- Home offices or reading nooks, positioned over a desk or armchair for focused task lighting
- Bedrooms with high ceilings, placed beside a bed or lounge chair for ambient light
- Open-plan spaces where a sculptural arc lamp defines a zone
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft where the 68-inch reach may overwhelm the space
- Spaces with low ceilings under 8 ft, as the 92-inch height may feel too tall
- Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this lamp is rated for dry locations only
How bright is it?
1500 lumens - about as bright as a 100W incandescent bulb, ideal for ambient and task lighting in medium to large rooms. The included 14W LED bulb provides ample illumination for reading or relaxing.
Light color and feel
2700K warm white - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent light. Flatters skin tones and warm interiors. With a CRI of 95+, colors appear vibrant and accurate, making it suitable for art or decor. Fully dimmable via the column stem switch.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 68 in length x 18 in width x 92 in height. The shade is 22 in diameter x 9 in height, and the base is 17 in diameter x 2 in height. Works best in rooms with ceilings 8 ft or higher. The arc extends 68 in from the base, so allow enough floor space.
