Launching this month, the Taccia LED 2016 is
the new version of the company’s iconic Taccia
table lamp designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo
Castiglioni. This new product actually reverts back
to – and accomplishes – the art of the original
1958 design intention. Taccia LED 2016’s perfect
bowl shape was created using the most advanced
molding technologies, allowing it to maintain a
uniform surface both inside and out. It is available
in either a Black or Anodized Silver nish.
Thanks to the use of an LED light source, FLOS
has been able to recover the original vision of the
Castiglioni brothers: a plastic bowl re ector.
