George Kovacs isn’t the only one that makes Arc style Floor Lamps. Hubbardton Forge makes the Mobius Arc Floor Lamp. It is made in Vermont, available in a lot of different finishes.

The Calogero Arc Floor Lamp by Uttermost features an adjustable, large steel arc, finished in a plated, dark oxidized bronze, resting on a matte black foot. The suspended, tapered round shade is a light beige linen fabric with natural slubbing. The shade also pivots in an upward angle.
Arc floor lamps are practical. They make a statement and they really light a large area.
