Know before you buy
No, the lamp is entirely freestanding. It is designed to provide overhead lighting without the need for any ceiling wiring or permanent installation.
The lamp is exceptionally stable due to its heavy Carrera marble base, which acts as a counterweight to the cantilevered stainless steel arm. The base measures approximately 21.5 inches in height and provides the necessary mass to support the arch safely.
Yes, the stainless steel arm is telescopic. It features adjustable rod lengths of 56, 62, and 68 inches, allowing you to customize the reach to better suit your specific room layout.
The lamp uses a 100W A-21 medium silvered incandescent bulb, which is included with your purchase. The silvered finish is specific to the design to ensure the light is reflected properly within the shade.
The lamp is operated by a convenient foot switch located on the 106-inch power cord, allowing you to easily control the light without reaching for a switch on the fixture itself.
The base is made of solid Carrera marble and is quite heavy. While it is designed to sit directly on the floor, we recommend using felt pads or a rug underneath if you are concerned about potential scuffing on delicate hardwood or tile surfaces.
