Palm Springs 1-Light Arc Floor Lamp by Nova of California

Palm Springs 1-Light Arc Floor Lamp is an arc floor lamp that puts light where a ceiling fixture would go, with no electrician and nothing to open in the ceiling, from a brand with over a century of lighting behind it.

The Palm Springs 1-Light Arc Floor Lamp puts light where a ceiling fixture would go, with no electrician and nothing to open in the ceiling. It stands 87 in tall with a 57 in reach on a base measuring 17"DIA. x 2"H. Nova groups full-size arcs at 80 to 95 in, tall enough to sit over a sofa or a sectional. It gives 1500 lumens of 2700K warm light; it uses a dimmer on the column. It comes in one finish, chosen by Nova to work in most rooms.

Where it works best

Use it over a sofa or sectional, above a dining table, or in a room with no ceiling fixture. It plugs into a standard outlet and moves with you; no electrician is needed. Nova lists final assembly as required.

Who this is not for

This is not for anyone who needs a lamp that fits a narrow corner: the base and the reach both need clear floor and head room, so measure the spot first. It also needs final assembly, so plan a few minutes for setup.

Why we carry Nova of California

Nova started in 1923 in a Brooklyn factory and has been designing lighting ever since. Today the company is based in Venice Beach, California, and it still builds lamps around the idea its founders had: make a home warmer, cozier and easier to live in. We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009, and Nova earns its place for one reason: the proportions look expensive and the build is meant to stay in the house for years.

Care, bulbs and dimming

Dust with a dry cloth and skip harsh cleaners. Nova says a damp cloth is fine on clear or mirrored glass, and that a standard touch-up pen covers minor scratches on wood or gold leaf. The 14W A19 E26 light source is not included; for dimming, Nova recommends quality dimmable, flicker-free LEDs.

LED or incandescent?

Shop by lumens, not watts: lumens say how bright a bulb is, while watts only say how much power it pulls. The factory LED in this arc floor lamp is 14W and puts out 1500 lumens, roughly the output of a 100W incandescent, using a fraction of the power and giving off far less heat. An incandescent bulb has a slightly rounder, warmer glow but runs hot and wears out sooner. If you ever swap bulbs, match the base type and pick a dimmable, flicker-free LED at 2700K so the light stays consistent. Our LED vs. incandescent bulb guide has a chart that matches old wattages to the right LED.
