A rare pair of Taraxacum pendant lamps by Flos, designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in the 1960s.
An enduring icon of post-war Italian design, Taraxacum exemplifies the Castiglioni brothers’ extraordinary ability to transform industrial experimentation into timeless elegance. Constructed from a delicate steel framework enveloped in sprayed Cocoon resin, each lamp possesses a wonderfully organic quality, diffusing a soft, atmospheric light while asserting a sculptural presence of remarkable sophistication.
Equally compelling whether suspended above a dining table, within a grand entrance hall, or incorporated into a carefully curated interior, this matching pair embodies the refined modernity and effortless confidence associated with the golden age of Italian design.
A highly desirable acquisition for discerning collectors and decorators alike.
