It dims from a dimmer on the floor. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Design Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNova has been making lamps since 1923. In the 1950s and 60s its designer Peter Morelli turned the arc lamp into an American living-room staple, and the brand still works from that same idea: good light, honest materials, a shape you notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You’ll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reads as furniture, not hardware. Built from wood\/steel, lucite, and steel, it has the weight a thin fixture lacks. It measures 80 in tall, 20 in wide, and 80 in reach, so the scale is easy to plan around. The light is warm and even: 1500 lumens of 2700K warm light, CRI 95+, so wood, fabric and skin tones look right. The single finish is chosen to sit with most palettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade for Real Life\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay to day it is easy. Plug it into a regular outlet and shift it whenever the room changes; no electrician involved. Dust it with a dry cloth, keep harsh cleaners away, and use a dimmable, flicker-free LED if you dim it, as Nova recommends. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurious how the finishes and materials compare? \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/finishes-explained-lighting\"\u003eFinishes explained\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/materials-behind-the-lamp\"\u003ewhat your lamp is made of\u003c\/a\u003e cover it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLED vs. Incandescent\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bulb’s brightness is its lumen count, and its wattage is only the electricity it uses. Here that means 1500 lumens from a 23W LED, the same punch as an old 100W incandescent, without the heat. Incandescents read a touch warmer and softer, but they run hot and burn out faster. Switching later is easy: keep the same base, and choose a dimmable, flicker-free LED rated 2700K. Want a quick reference?
