Designed by brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, this innovative lamp has stood the test of time since its creation in 1962 by the two accomplished Italian designers. Inspired by a streetlamp, the design of the Flos Arco is unfalteringly fit for purpose. The Flos Arco boasts an elegant and adjustable stem of 220/215 cm, reaching an overall height of 240cm to create a light that one can walk under and can illuminate any space without drilling needed. The base features bevelled corners that accompany a hole for lifting and is crafted from a solid block of white Carrara marble 55cm high. This elegant stone counterweight is unique to each Flos Arco and compliments the curved satin-finish telescopic stem. Sophisticated and clean, the polished, zapon-varnished aluminium lamp is able to swivel and dim for easy adjustment. A true design classic the Arco designer floor lamp is instantly recognisable the world over. As a result of its enduring appeal the Flos Arco floor lamp was awarded The Product Lifetime Achievement Award at the 26th Compasso d’Oro awards in 2020, the first recipient of this new award. A star at award ceremonies, the Flos Arco floor light is also a star of the Silver Screen, starring in the James Bond film “Diamonds are Forever" and also the 1969 classic “The Italian Job". The sweeping arced profile of the Flos Arco floor lamp lends itself to any room in the house and we think it is perfect for brightening a living room, dining room or bedroom. The famous Arco Floor Lamp with its elegant marble base was designed in 1962 by Achille Castiglioni and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for the Italian manufacturer Flos. This direct-light LED standing lamp has a base in white Carrara marble. Dimensions: H 240 cm - W 215 cm to 220 cm - lampshade adjustable height: 117 to 137 cm - Ø lampshade 32 cm.
