'Arco' Floor Lamp

‘ARCO’ floor lamp, designed by Achille Castiglioni for FLOS in 1962. This versatile lamp was created to serve in place of a pendant lamp in instances where there was not an electrical box where a ceiling fixture could be installed. The long, graceful arching curve of the stainless steel neck spans ca. 2m allowing the adjustable aluminum head to be placed over a dining or coffee table. The Carrara marble base offers the perfect counterweight and is pierced near the top so a wooden dowel can be used to move it easily. Made in Italy.
