Characterised … more The Nictea ceiling light by Flos, designed by Afra & Tobia Scarpa, is an iconic piece of modern design. Characterised by a harmony of form and function, it features a metal body with a blown glass diffuser. Its shape is reminiscent of a large inverted bowl, which diffuses light evenly and softly. Nictea is appreciated for its simple elegance and versatile style, making it suitable for a variety of environments, from residential to commercial settings. The possibility to adjust the height of the chandelier adds practicality, allowing it to be adapted to different needs. It is a perfect example of Castiglioni’s genius in combining aesthetics and functionality in an innovative way. Patina due to age and use.
