A 92-inch arc floor lamp with an Avocado linen drum shade and white marble base, designed by Peter Morelli for modern living rooms and reading nooks.
The Float Arc Lamp, originally designed by Peter Morelli in 1960, is a modern icon. Its sweeping black nickel steel arc is balanced by a solid white marble base, while the Avocado linen shade diffuses light softly. This lamp provides overhead-style illumination without ceiling installation, making it a versatile statement piece for contemporary interiors.
Best for
- Living rooms with seating areas, positioned over a sofa or chair for ambient and task lighting
- Reading nooks or home offices, where the dimmable 1500-lumen output provides focused light
- Bedrooms with high ceilings, used as a dramatic bedside reading lamp
- Open-plan spaces where a sculptural floor lamp defines a zone
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft, where the 92-inch height and 68-inch reach may overwhelm the space
- Carpeted floors without a protective mat, due to the heavy marble base (61 lbs)
- Spaces requiring direct downlight, as the shade diffuses light broadly
How bright is it?
1500 lumens - about as bright as a 100W incandescent bulb, suitable for ambient lighting in medium to large rooms. The included LED bulb is energy-efficient and long-lasting (25,000 hours).
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 vivid and accurate, ideal for reading or art. Fully dimmable via the stem switch for adjustable ambiance.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 68 in long x 18 in wide x 92 in high. Shade: 22 in diameter x 9 in high. Base: 17 in diameter x 2 in high. The arc extends 68 inches from the base, so allow clearance. Works best in rooms with ceilings 8 ft or higher.
