About this vintage design furniture

The rare mid-century pendant lamp COCOON Viscontea by Achille Castiglioni for Flos was made in Italy in the 1960s. One of the most known and gorgeous of the Coccon lamps - Viscontea. The structure of the lamp is covered using a highly innovative manufacturing technique for the time, a sprayed plastic polymer applied over a metal framework. This was a reimagining of a process initially developed by the military to create an elastics and resistant membrane that mimicked the appearance of vellum. This lamp is in very good vintage condition. No holes or tears. Its organic shape casts an ambient light throughout a room. Height with cable 95 cm. Suitable for 220 and 110 volts. For safety reasons, the wiring has been changed.
