Arco Floor Lamp

If you are finding it tough to raise the £1000+ needed to buy an original Flos Arco Floor lamp designed by Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, then perhaps an excellent reproduction at a fraction of the cost is just the ticket. Nothing really quite matches this most amazing original lamp but our version brings this most fantastic of designs to everyone at a truly affordable price and at the best of quality.

Here is an opportunity to add a talking point to any room not only with the style of the Arco lamp but also its amazing functionality!

One of the classics of modern lighting design—and part of MoMA’s permanent collection—the Arco Floor Lamp (1962) is characterized by the dramatic arc of its stainless steel stem and the counterpoint provided by the weighty marble base. (A centralised hole in the base aids in moving of the lamp—insert a broomstick through the core for two-person lifting.) Inspired by the design of a street light, it cleverly provides overhead lighting without requiring ceiling suspension. The polished stainless steel shade extends eight feet beyond the base, leaving room for a dining table or sofa to sit directly beneath the light source.

The Arco is made with multiple materials but most substantial is the heavy marble base and stainless steel stem and shade.
