An arc floor lamp, also called an arch floor lamp, is a floor lamp in the shape of an arc. Floor lighting nowadays is much more than just brightening a room. It also creates a nice ambient to a particular area, such as your dining room or bedroom. One of the most commonly used lamps for these purposes are floor lamps and arc floor lamps are getting increasingly popular.

The arc floor lamp has a size that easily lights a whole room if necessary. It has an adjustable bulb that gives either accent light or reading light. Many people have a few of these in the room to have enough floor light while at the same time creating beautiful and tasteful shadows, so very modern these days. One of the best placement for an arc floor lamp is the corners of a room, as this gives is really the maximum effect.

These types of floor lamps come in a wide variety of materials, types, forms and sizes, giving everyone that particular piece that will greatly compliment the room it will be placed in. Many times people buy arch floor lamps that are in the same color or shade as the matching room.

The arc floor lamp comes with one head or with multiple heads each with a lightbulb inserted. If it has multiple heads, it will usually come with a multiways switch (for a a 3-head lamp it usually has a 3-way switch which lights one, two or three lamps at the same time.) Some have regular lightbulbs and some have halogen lamps. When multiple lamps are included in one they usually give a stunning visual effect.

Most of these lamps come in chrome finish with a nice round marble base and for many the hight is adjustable. Others have a satin steel finish with a heavy marble base. Yet others have a nickel finish. The arc design allows them to be placed anywhere and still reach table and seating areas. Some have a futuristic design and are custom made by known artists, and of course they are a bit pricier. However it is worth having one of these lamps for the pure pleasure it will give you and the beauty it will add to your home decor enhancing it nicely.

Pricing varies from a few tens of dollars up to $600 and more. Of course the more you pay the more sophisticated design and functionality you will get. For example the George Kovacs range of lamps is quite expensive and people are buying them a lot as they do provide a unique ambiente to any room.

To clean this type of arch floor lamp use a dry clean cloth to dust. Avoid harsh abrasives or any chemicals that might damage the nice lamp finish.
