Wonderful mid-century dome-shaped cocoon pendant light in beige resin and steel. This gorgeous ceiling light was designed by achille castiglioni and produced in italy during the 1960s. Fully original and in amazing vintage condition, the resin has developed a beautiful uniform beige natural patina, giving the light a unique and incredibly charming character. When lit, the effect is simply spectacular, casting a warm and welcoming glow. The pendant features a rare flat dome-shaped silhouette composed of a steel internal frame entirely covered in sprayed resin, a technique that became iconic in italian lighting design during the period. Professionally wired and tested, compatible with both us and eu/uk standards, and uses one standard e26/e27 light bulb. A unique and timeless pendant, perfect for elevating an organic modern, mid-century modern, or contemporary interior.
