An adjustable-height, folding-arm floor lamp that puts reading light exactly where the chair is.
- 🇪🇸Designed & made in Barcelona, Spain

- 💡E26 LED, up to 100 W
- 🏠IP20, indoor dry rooms

A fixed floor lamp rarely lights the page where you are reading. The Carpyen Galilea solves that with a folding, rotating arm and an adjustable height, so the cotton shade can be pulled over a chair, a sofa corner or a desk.
It suits modern, transitional and Scandinavian living rooms, home offices, bedrooms and hotel suites, and its slim footprint helps in apartments.

Best Rooms and Placement
Set Galilea behind the arm of a sofa or armchair and swing the shade forward over the seat. In a bedroom it replaces a wall sconce when you want to read in a chair; in an office corner it gives desk light without a clamp. For a hotel or rental, the adjustable arm lets guests aim the light themselves. Pair it with a table lamp across the room to balance the glow.
Planning Notes
- Measure the space behind the seat; the lamp reaches out to 24.8 in (63 cm) from its base.
- Plan for a nearby outlet and keep the cord clear of walkways.
- Choose a warm-white E26 LED bulb of 100 W equivalent or less.
Who This Is Not For
- Bathrooms or outdoor spaces: it is IP20 and for dry indoor rooms only.
- Rooms needing strong ceiling-level light: it is a reading and accent light.
- Spaces with no room to swing the arm out or to fold it away.
Care
Our advice: dust the cotton shade with a soft brush or lint roller and wipe the metal with a dry cloth. Fold the arm gently rather than forcing it.
