Sirius 56" Novelty Floor Lamp provides mood light, and general light but also functional light. With a simple adjustment, you can switch between these lighting effects. That's because not only the arm but also the gold disc is adjustable. For even more customized lighting effects, there is a dimmer in the cord. Simply adjust the gold disc to direct the light where you need it, or bounce it off the wall. The lamp on the other hand provides your room with atmospheric, general lighting.
