A 92-inch tall arc floor lamp with a crimson red linen drum shade and black nickel finish, designed by Peter Morelli for living rooms and bedrooms.
The Float Arc Lamp, designed by Peter Morelli in 1960, features a sweeping, gracefully arched silhouette that elegantly extends over seating areas. Its black nickel steel body and substantial white marble base provide stability and a touch of luxury. The crimson red linen drum shade, paired with an opal diffuser, delivers soft ambient light, making it a versatile addition to modern interiors.
Best for
- Living rooms with a sectional or sofa, positioned to cast light over the seating area for reading or ambiance
- Primary bedrooms with a reading nook or armchair, providing focused task light without ceiling installation
- Home offices where overhead lighting is needed without hardwiring, placed beside a desk or lounge chair
- Open floor plans where a single statement lamp defines the living zone
- Spaces with high ceilings, as the 92-inch height fills vertical space gracefully
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft where the arc may overwhelm the space
- Homes with very low ceilings (under 8 ft) as the lamp's height may feel disproportionate
- Bathrooms or outdoor covered 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 or task lighting in medium to large rooms. It can serve as a primary light source for a seating area but may need supplemental lighting for larger spaces.

With a CRI of 95+, colors appear vivid and accurate, making it suitable for reading or highlighting decor. Fully dimmable via the built-in stem switch for adjustable ambiance.
