About the Item

Well proportioned and giving a beautiful diffused warm light, this cylinder cocoon light has the ultimate 1960s look to it, with an alternating pattern of circles and squares. This cocoon pendant light is in very good condition and was made by Goldkant, Germany, some time in the 1960s. The pearl/silk patina is an indication that the lamp was in a NON SMOKING Environment. We think it would fit well with any Mid-Century Modern, modernist or indeed minimalist interior setting. Nota Bene: There are no tears or holes! Dimensions: Diameter: 19 cm (7.5 in) Height: 68 cm (26.8 in) Often attributed and very close to the designs of Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni. In fact this cocoon was manufactured in Germany by Goldkant Leuchten in the late 50's and early 60s . Designer Fritz (Friedel) Wauer was credited by FLOS for devising the technology of spraying the self wrapping foam onto metal frames - similar to silk worms constructing their cocoon. This innovation was later brought to the established Italian FLOS Designers like Carlo & Tobia Scarpa, Dino Gavina and of course to Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni. This makes these Goldkant models the original predecessor to later cocoon lamps such as the Taraxacum S by FLOS. Packed with extra care for safe shipping! Please note: With a lifetime of stories behind them, our vintage design items come with a bit of character. Like the best of us, they may have picked up some scratches and scuff marks, acquired patina, and that original shine may have faded a little. And like with most of us, the internal struggles are not always visible to the outside world. Our second-hand items may not fulfil state-of-the art safety standards and codes in your region. Inner faults may exist that were missed by us. Please always consult with a certified professional before installing any electrical items. Customs duties and import charges are the responsibility of the importer.
