Taraxacum pendant lamp by Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for Flos, 1960

This is a great example of the iconic 'Taraxacum' pendant lamp by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for Flos, circa 1960. Inspired by the shape of the dandelion flower, this lamp was the first result of a series of experiments to apply a cocoon resin to a filigree metal structure, which also resulted in the Viscontea designs as well as the Nuvola by Tobia Scarpa. Very good original condition overall. One small hole as seen in a picture. It is not visible when hanging because it is on top. Non of these lamps are signed, but they are original.
