This led to Castiglioni brother designing their series of Cocoon lights, issued by Flos." We take pride in bringing vintage fixtures to their full glory again.

Every item in our collection goes through strict condition inspection and receives careful restoration if it’s needed. We work with highly skilled restorers, the very best in the business.

Every single fixture comes with a complimentary US rewiring and adapted to US standards.
