flos taccia lamp

the flos taccia table light was designed by the Castiglioni brothers for Flos in 1962, and as with many of their other products of that time, a key design factor was to make the light functional by making it adjustable. Its unique beauty lies in its simplicity. The base is a fluted column of Aluminium - Classical Architecture combined with Industrial Materials. The Clear Glass Shade is a parabolic bowl, topped with an aluminium Reflector - which can be easily rotated to direct the light. The Light is adjusted by positioning the blown glass diffuser at an angle from the bulb positioned within the column base, the light is then reflected off the concave spun matte white aluminium reflector which sits on top of the Glass Bowl. Metal reflector with gloss white finish inside and white powder-coated outside. Adjustable hand-blown clear glass diffuser. Matte black or anodized silver extruded aluminium body. Nickel-plated and zapon-varnished polished steel base.
