Captain Flint Floor Lamp
Made by Flos
Designed by Michael Anastassiades
Michael Anastassiades approaches light as a study in physical tension. The Captain Flint distills that sensibility into a single, composed object: a slender stem rising from a weighted marble base, holding a conical diffuser that rotates to shift between focused task light and a soft upward wash.
The marble anchors the composition with quiet authority. Above it, a painted steel or brushed brass stem reads as almost weightless by contrast, the proportions calibrated so that neither element overwhelms the other. The lamp does not announce itself. It simply performs.
- Rotating conical diffuser for directional or ambient illumination
- Marble base available in multiple finishes
- Painted steel or brushed brass stem options
- Foot-operated dimmer for hands-free control across a full range of light
Anastassiades, whose practice is rooted in object-making as cultural inquiry, treats the floor lamp as both instrument and sculpture. The Captain Flint functions with precision at any setting and holds its form with equal conviction whether lit or dark.
Typically ships in 12-14 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the finish options for the Captain Flint?
The Captain Flint is available with a painted steel or brushed brass stem, paired with a marble base that comes in several finish variations. Specific combinations can be confirmed with a design consultant.
How does the rotating diffuser on the Captain Flint work?
The conical diffuser pivots to direct light downward for focused task illumination or upward for a soft ambient wash. The rotation is manual and can be adjusted at any time without tools.
Who is Michael Anastassiades?
Michael Anastassiades is a Cyprus-born, London-based designer whose practice spans lighting, objects, and jewelry. His work is characterized by formal economy and a persistent interest in balance, tension, and the poetic potential of simple geometric forms.
Does the Captain Flint include a dimmer?
Yes. The lamp features a foot-operated dimmer that allows continuous adjustment from crisp task light to a quiet ambient glow without requiring contact with the lamp itself.
Is the Captain Flint suitable for reading and ambient use?
The lamp is designed for both. The rotating diffuser and foot dimmer together give the user precise control over light direction and intensity, making it equally effective as a reading lamp or a source of atmospheric light.
