FLOS Parentesi - standing pendant light with switch

A truly extraordinary lighting object: the Parentesi pendant light by FLOS is difficult to categorise and represents the epitome of the unusual and striking.

Is it a floor lamp, a pendant light, or both? It is certainly not always necessary to categorise things, but when you try to do so with this light, you quickly reach your limits. If you identify this design object as a pendant light, you will quickly realise that almost everything about it is anything but classic and ordinary. First of all, you cannot hang it over something – a table, for example – because, in addition to the ceiling suspension, you also need space on the floor to mount Parentesi and position it correctly. It also does not have a classic lampshade, as found on most living room lights – instead, a simple spotlight provides direct light. This can be adjusted as desired and is equipped with a switch. Parantesi may not be a typical light source, but it is definitely an attractive design object and a useful light!

The FLOS company has been in existence for over 50 years now, working with a team of renowned designers to create special, high-quality lights that have gained international recognition and won numerous awards.
