Vintage Cocoon table lamp by Castiglioni for Flos, Italy 1960

Cocoon Table Lamp by Castiglioni for Flos 1960 Italy This is a beautiful table lamp by Castiglioni for Flos, made in Italy in the 1960s. The table model is a rare model and completely original. You don't see them much as a table lamp. 1 metal rod is also loose, which we have left as it is and has no disadvantages. The main feature of this iconic pendant lamp by architect C. is the new material used to make it. The frame is metal covered with Cocoon spray-on plastic. In the United States after World War II, a new type of fiberglass-reinforced spray-on plastic coating called Cocoon was invented to protect disarmed warships. This innovative material was imported to Italy by Arturo Eisenkeil, a small manufacturer from Merano, who used this resin to make lampshades and then marketed it.
