An 85-inch arc floor lamp with a white Lucite shade and satin nickel steel body, designed by Peter Morelli in 1960 for living rooms and reading areas.
The Simple Morelli Arc Lamp is a modern arc lamp that adds elegance to any space. Its sweeping arched silhouette and oval Lucite shade provide a soft, ambient glow. The sturdy white marble base ensures stability and adds a touch of luxury. This lamp offers overhead illumination without ceiling installation, making it a versatile choice for open-plan spaces.
Best for
- Living rooms with high ceilings, placed over a sofa or seating area for ambient light
- Reading nooks or home offices, positioned beside an armchair for task lighting
- Open-plan spaces where a portable overhead light is needed without ceiling wiring
- Modern interiors with neutral or minimalist color schemes
- Spaces with a mid-century modern or contemporary aesthetic
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft where the 68-inch reach may overwhelm the space
