The Sélva arc floor lamp traces a large bronze curve that deploys a generous white pleated lampshade over your sofa. Placed at the edge of the living room, its arc extends over the seating area to bring light to the center of the room — with no need for an end table or a ceiling-mounted pendant light. This bronze floor lamp with a large lampshade was designed as a sofa floor lamp: simply slide it behind the seating and let the curve do the rest.
An adjustable arc to light the heart of the living room
-
Arc adjustable in reach (160 to 240 cm) and height (210 to 240 cm) — position the head over the sofa, then adjust the curve to light exactly where you are reading or entertaining.
-
Round white pleated lampshade Ø 60 cm — a wide fabric drum that diffuses a soft, warm light, perfect for a cozy evening atmosphere.
-
Bronze-finish metal structure — a graphic and warm silhouette that adds warmth to a modern living room floor lamp, avoiding the cold feel of chrome.
-
Weighted round base Ø 45 cm — a stable base that safely supports the overhanging arc.
An E27 socket (60W max) accepts the bulb of your choice: a warm white LED for a cozy ambiance over the sofa, or a dimmable LED to soften the light as the evening progresses.
How to install your arc floor lamp
Installation requires no tools or drilling: assemble the rod onto the round base Ø 45 cm, clip the arc into place, set the white pleated lampshade on the head, and screw in your E27 bulb. Place the base behind or beside the sofa and pivot the arc to bring the light over the seating — the reach adjusts from 160 to 240 cm. Plug into a standard 220-230V outlet. Expect it to take about ten minutes, always with the power off.
How to care for your floor lamp
Dust the bronze arc with a soft, dry cloth, and the white pleated lampshade with a feather duster or the brush attachment of a vacuum set to low power. Avoid abrasive products on the bronze finish and direct water on the fabric. Cut the power before replacing the E27 bulb. Always keep the power off.
Arc living room floor lamp: frequently asked questions
How far does the arc extend?
The curve is adjustable from 160 to 240 cm in reach and 210 to 240 cm in height. You bring the lampshade over the sofa and then adjust the arc according to the depth of the seating — this is the main benefit of an arc floor lamp compared to a straight floor lamp.
Is it a good floor lamp for my sofa?
Yes, that is exactly what it is made for. As a sofa floor lamp, you place the base behind the seating and the arc suspends this pleated lampshade floor lamp directly above, like a living room reading light. Its bronze finish complements both velvet and linen.
Do I need to drill or fix anything?
No. The living room floor lamp rests on a weighted round base (Ø 45 cm) and plugs into a simple outlet. No drilling, no ceiling work: it can be moved whenever you rearrange your furniture.
Which bulb should I choose?
An E27 base bulb, 60W maximum (not included). For the living room, a warm white LED (2700-3000 K) highlights the softness of the white lampshade; a dimmable LED allows you to vary the intensity depending on the moment.
What size is the lampshade?
The round white pleated lampshade measures Ø 60 cm by 30 cm in height: an ample presence that balances the large curve of the arc and diffuses a broad sheet of light over the sofa.
The Sélva is part of our collection of living room floor lamps. If you are unsure about the finish, compare it to the Cézan cream model with dimmer, the Arvo black and gold arc version, or the Gyna white arc to find the arc that best matches your sofa.
