A 92-inch arc floor lamp with a satin nickel steel body, black marble base, and pool blue linen drum shade, designed by Peter Morelli for modern living rooms and reading areas.
The Float Arc Lamp, designed in 1960 by Peter Morelli, is a mid-century modern classic. Its sweeping arc silhouette extends overhead, providing ambient light without ceiling installation. The pool blue linen shade with opal diffuser softens glare, while the satin nickel steel body and black marble base add a touch of elegance. Handcrafted in Venice Beach, California, this contract-grade lamp is a lasting investment in design.
