Original finish on this minimalist mid-century modern classic is reminiscent of Arredoluce’s “Trienniale” floor lamp, with its adjustable globe-shaped metal shades and solid copper counterweight handles featuring seldom seen satin white enamel finishes. They’re handsomely accented by an equally uncommon white carrara marble slab base.

In a line-up of Sonneman’s signature chrome "orbiter" or “eyeball” lamps, this clean and sophisticated all-white configuration stands out as something special.

Ball joint-mounted chrome arms can be easily adjusted and fixed in a myriad of positions. Top third of pole is chrome, while the remainder has a satin black enamel finish. Original wiring with new plug.

Dimensions listed are as shown in primary image. Height to top of pole is 58.25 inches; each arm including handle is 27 inches long; base is .75 inches thick and 11 inches in diameter. less
