Glo-Ball Floor Lamp

I love this lamp. I bought one for my main home, then bought another for a vacation home. It's solid as a rock and is extremely well packaged. I'd recommend upgraded shipping, so the freight company will bring the three boxes to your front door. It comes on a wooden pallet with the three packages (lamp, shade and bulb) wrapped together in plastic wrap.

Great design, well manufactured.

This lamp has a lovely all-purpose, modern design that looks great in many different settings and will continue to do so for years to come, even as styles change. What you cannot tell from pictures and until you receive the lamp itself is how beautifully constructed the item is. The base and central support are of heavy, high-quality, beautifully welded and powder-coated metal. The overall fit and finish of the piece is wonderfull -- no evidence of short-cuts, mistakes, or cheap/fast workmanship. The glass diffuser is a marvel of glassblowing -- perfectly round, evenly coated, and without bubbles and other imperfections -- and it produces the loveliest, most even quality of light at every light setting, from an ember's glow to full power. You can feel the quality and solidity of this piece when you pick it up and move it. I love this floor lamp so much that I bought three -- one large one for my office, another large one for my living room, and a third medium-sized one for a guest room in my home. Unlike many Italian designer lamps that are pointlessly expensive and cheaply made (i.e., the definition of a "rip off"), the Flos Glo-ball floor lamps really deliver, and you will never regret to have paid the going price for one.

This is a beautiful product, nice heavy base so no chance of the lamp tipping (which was my main worry when ordering), lovely light and good quality switch at the base. The glass is substantial and the lamp is very well proportioned. It is quite a short floor lamp, which is why I bought it, so useful for certain spaces.

Like many of the other products by FLOS, this lamp is a great example of how beautiful modern design can be. The glass ball appears almost like a halo when lit. It's rigid frame raises attention to the durability this product was designed to have.
