The angular arc of the stem on the Cloister Brass Large Floor Lamp, the way the shade dangles, and the minimal shape of its base are design details that make it an exemplar of contemporary design. The clean way the stem is fastened to the base and the pared-down lines of the white linen shade enhance the gold floor lamp's modernity. The acrylic diffuser fastened by the petite button finial is a clever aspect to this design.
