Designed for Flos by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni Taccia - TopicsExpress

Designed for Flos by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni Taccia has been in production since 1962 and still retains the charm of a timeless object. Refined light table, thanks to the large size is also usable as floor lamp. It consists of a base made of anodized extruded aluminum, also available in black. On the base is resting a wide bell of translucent glass, which can be freely oriented to direct the light, surmounted by a concave disc in white aluminum. The light source is hidden inside the metal support, profiled with projections to improve the diffusion of the heat of the bulb. This technical device, which makes it look like the basis of a classical column, has become the main feature lines of the lamp, and has a great success.
