AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful Cocoon design lamp, made in Germany in the 1960s/1970s // design attributed to Friedel Wauer.
The original Cocoon fabric is in remarkably good and intact condition.
The delicate resin skin shows none of the typical, value-reducing cracks, perforations, or major breaks on the filigree wire frame.
The lamp exhibits a beautiful, absolutely even and authentic patina of age.
The characteristic, fine veining of the material comes through perfectly, without being compromised by coarse, unattractive water stains or one-sided, heavy nicotine discoloration.
The original chain suspension as well as the contemporary gold-colored canopy are present and underline the coherent, unmodified vintage original condition.
Total height: 85 cm (with suspension).
Height of the head only: 30 cm
