Nictea Pendant by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Flos

Creator: Afra & Tobia Scarpa - Flos
Offered by: Original in Berlin

Description
The *Nictea* pendant is composed of two rounded sections, seamlessly connected by carefully integrated metal components that are central to its design. Light gently passes through the perforated band between the two layers, as well as through the circular glass lens at the base, creating a warm, diffused glow. The fixture is suspended via a white spiral electrical cable that conceals a tensioned metal support wire, enabling vertical adjustment within a fixed range. The design ensures even light diffusion through the perforations and lens while maintaining structural integrity and clean suspension.Vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age.
