Achille Castiglioni Teli Kd51/R light Flos, Italy 1970s
- Description
-
Light is tempered and diffused by these rare pendants, an elegant contrast of primary modernist shapes and textured fabric. Achille Castiglioni (1918-2002) and his brother Pier Giacomo hold a position of paramount importance in twentieth-century Italian design. Among their influential and pioneering designs are the legendary Arco floor lamp and Taccia table lamp.
The ‘Teli’ pendant was an earlier design, devised by the brothers in 1959 for the Kartell company, but put into production in the 1970s for Flos. This original design uses raflon, a polyethylene fibre with the capacity to disperse light.
