A 92-inch arc floor lamp with a weathered brass steel body, white marble base, and a white linen drum shade, designed by Peter Morelli for modern living rooms and reading areas.
The Float Arc Lamp, designed by Peter Morelli in 1960, is an iconic modern piece. Its sweeping arched silhouette provides overhead lighting without ceiling installation. The weathered brass steel body and genuine white marble base offer stability and elegance, while the white linen drum shade with opal diffuser delivers soft, glare-free ambient light. This contract-grade lamp is a versatile statement piece for any contemporary home.
Best for
- Living rooms with a sofa or sectional, arched over the seating area for ambient light
- Reading nooks or home offices, positioned beside an armchair or desk
- Bedrooms with high ceilings, used as a dramatic bedside reading light
- Open-plan spaces where the arc defines a seating zone without overhead wiring
- Contract-grade installations needing a durable, dimmable arc lamp
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft where the 68-inch reach may dominate the floor plan
- Spaces with low ceilings under 8 ft, as the 92-inch height may feel overwhelming
- 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 or task lighting in medium to large rooms. The included 14W LED bulb provides ample illumination for reading or general use.
Light color and feel
2700K warm white - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent lighting. Flatters skin tones and warm interiors. With a CRI of 95+, colors appear vivid and accurate. The built-in dimmer allows you to adjust brightness from a soft glow to full output.
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. The base is 17 in diameter x 2 in height. Weighs 61 lbs. Best suited for rooms with ceilings at least 8 ft high. The arc extends 68 in from the base, so allow clearance for the sweep.
