Ready for delivery - Flos 18k Gold Gun Table Lamp

The 18-carat gold Gun table lamp from Flos, designed by Phillippe Starck, is a statement about the fragility of life. The golden body of the lamp contrasts with the black part, which symbolises the relationship between money and death. Designed to make an impact, the lamp is ideal for both direct reading light and ambient lighting. 20% of sales of the Gun range are donated to the anti-poverty charity Frères Des Hommes.

The electronic dimmer that allows you to regulate the brightness of the light is located on the cable.

Flos was born from a brilliant idea: the idea of ​​creating objects that could change the way of life, not just for Italians. So in the early 1960s, a certain Mr. Gavina, with the small Merano manufacturer Eisenkeil, decided - after having created many new pieces of furniture (with the brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Afra and Tobia Scarpa and other masters of design) - that the time had come to create new lamps as well. Thus, the Castiglionis and the Scarpas, using the cocoon technique, conceived in the United States and tested by Eisenkeil, began to make lamps such as the Taraxacum or the Fantasma. Many other beautiful and surprising lamps followed these first ones: thus, from its prehistory, Flos (Fiore in Latin, the name that Pier Giacomo Castiglioni chose for it) was reinventing the idea of ​​artificial lighting.
