Castiglioni pair of first edition Gatto Grande lamps early 1960s

Pair of Gatto Grande first edition lamps designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for Flos in the early 1960s. They feature their original white powder-coated metal structure, and diffuser made of cocoon resin sprayed onto the structure. Each lamp cocoon resin has an amazing light beige patina, giving a warm and cosy feeling even when lit off. They are found in an amazing condition considering their age. Both lamps are signed on the inside, and fully rewired.
