A sleek combination of practical design and formal minimalism, Achille Castiglioni and Pio Manzù's 'Parentesi' pendant lamp for Flos is an ode to simplicity. Bringing together a black painted shaped steel tube, among which the bulb rests, with a vertical four meter steel cable, the lamp offers direct light without a dimmer. This black version of the light source is supplied with an EU plug and additionally features a injection-molded fixture head that houses a switch for easy use. The bulb is not included.
