Gatx View Brass Floor Lamp
SKU: 90249218
With a touch of urban edge, the Gatx View floor lamp modernizes the traditional bridge lamp, giving it an adjustable swing arm in addition to a curved pole. The swing arm rotates horizontally, while the shade can be adjusted vertically and secured with a locking key joint, allowing you to direct the light wherever it's needed. A textured cream colored drum shade brightens the design, softly distilling the light from a 150W bulb, while the antique brass finish adds mid-century modern flair. A 3-way rotary socket switch provides a variety of lighting options, allowing you to easily adjust the brightness between low, medium, and high. Partial assembly may be required.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Is this floor lamp stable enough for high-traffic areas or homes with pets?
Engineered with a sturdy metal base, this lamp is designed to remain stable even when the swing arm is fully extended. The weight of the base provides the necessary counterbalance to prevent tipping, making it a reliable choice for high-traffic living rooms or households with pets. For maximum stability, ensure all pole sections are tightened securely during the assembly process.
Is this lamp a good solution for a small apartment or a room with no overhead lighting?
Absolutely. Standing at 60.25 inches with a slim metal pole, this lamp provides a significant vertical presence without occupying much floor space. Its bridge design is particularly effective for urban apartment living; you can tuck the base behind a sofa or into a tight corner while the light extends 38 inches outward to illuminate the center of your seating area, effectively replacing the need for a ceiling fixture.
How adjustable is this bridge lamp for reading or tasks?
This lamp modernizes the traditional bridge design with a dual-adjustment system. The horizontal swing arm allows you to pivot the light over a seating area, while the vertical locking key joint on the shade lets you angle the beam precisely. This versatility makes it an authoritative choice for a dedicated reading nook or a home office where focused task lighting is essential.
What kind of light quality does the fabric shade provide?
The textured cream fabric drum shade is designed to softly distill light, creating a warm, diffused atmosphere that minimizes harsh glare. The drum shape is a hallmark of contemporary design, ensuring light is distributed evenly both upward to bounce off the ceiling for ambient warmth and downward for functional task lighting.
What level of brightness does this floor lamp provide?
To help you transition between different lighting needs, this lamp is equipped with a 3-way rotary socket switch. When paired with a compatible 3-way 150W bulb, it offers three distinct levels of illumination. This allows you to switch from a soft, ambient glow for relaxation to the high-lumen output required for detailed activities like reading or crafting.
How should I care for the metal finish on this lamp?
The antique brass finish on the metal base provides a sophisticated mid-century modern aesthetic. Based on our expertise with metallic finishes, we recommend dusting the surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its luster. To preserve the integrity of the finish, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can strip the protective coating over time.
