Best for

- Primary bedrooms 12x14 ft or larger, placed beside a bed or lounge chair
- Open floor plans where the arc reaches over a dining or conversation area
- Mid-Century Modern or contemporary interiors needing a sculptural focal point
- Spaces with high ceilings (9 ft or more) to showcase the 92-inch height
Not ideal for

- Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this lamp is rated for dry locations only
- Spaces with low ceilings (under 8 ft) where the arc may feel too tall
How bright is it?
1500 lumens - about as bright as a 100W incandescent bulb, ideal for ambient and task lighting in medium to large rooms. Bright enough for reading but not overpowering for general ambiance.
Light color and feel
2700K warm white - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent lighting. Flatters skin tones and warm wood/brass interiors. With a CRI of 95+, colors appear vivid and accurate, making it suitable for art or decor. Fully dimmable via foot slide dimmer for adjustable ambiance.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 68 in wide (reach) x 18 in deep x 92 in tall. Shade is 22 in diameter x 9 in tall. Base is 16 in diameter x 13 in tall. Best for rooms with at least 8 ft ceilings; the arc extends 68 in from the base, so allow clearance for the shade swing.
