A glass suspension ceiling lamp
Flos, Black & White lamp by Achille & Piergiacomo Castiglioni, Italy 1965
A glass and aluminium variant of the Splügen Bräu lamp, producing direct and diffused light in the various combinations. Three bulbs within the opal white glass diffuser and a down-turned silver-plated topped surface bulb, are set within the corrugated aluminium calotte. Its name comes from the back and white effect created when the glass part is turned on with diffused light and the lower part is switched off.
