A 92-inch tall arc floor lamp with a satin nickel finish, dark walnut wood base, and mustard linen drum shade, designed by Peter Morelli for living rooms and bedrooms.
The Tambo Arc Lamp is a mid-century modern icon designed by Peter Morelli in 1984 and handcrafted in Venice Beach, California. Its sweeping cantilever form delivers overhead illumination without ceiling installation, while the hand-laid wood tambour base and satin nickel hardware create a timeless blend of natural and industrial materials. The mustard linen shade with an opal lucite diffuser softens the light for a warm, inviting ambiance.
Best for
- Living rooms with seating areas where you need focused overhead light over a sofa or reading chair
- Bedrooms 12x14 ft or larger, positioned beside a bed or in a corner for ambient lighting
- Home offices needing adjustable task lighting over a desk or reading nook
- Open-concept spaces where the arc design can span over furniture without ceiling wiring
- Mid-century modern or eclectic interiors that benefit from a sculptural statement piece
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 10x10 ft where the 68-inch arc may overwhelm the space
- Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this lamp is rated for dry locations only
- Spaces with very low ceilings (under 8 ft) where the 92-inch height may feel too tall
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 in a bedroom or living room when paired with other fixtures.
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 render accurately, making it suitable for reading or highlighting decor. Fully dimmable via the foot slide dimmer for adjustable ambiance.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 68 in long x 18 in wide x 92 in tall. Shade: 22 in diameter x 9 in height. Base: 16 in diameter x 13 in height. The arc extends 68 inches from the base, so allow clearance for the full sweep. Works best in rooms with ceilings 8 ft or higher.
