Borne out of a 1971 collaboration between Achille Castiglioni and Pio Manzù, the Parentesi was named for the parenthesis symbol—a visual reference to the nickel-plated shaped tube that lives on a floor-to-ceiling steel cable. The steel cable can reach up to 157", and the tube allows the lamp head to move vertically along the cable to achieve a customized height. The head fixture is injection-molded black elastomer, equipped with a switch. The Parentesi provides direct lighting.

Why Special Order? LightForm sources most of its products direct from international suppliers to bring you the best prices. Our objective is to minimize the distance between the manufacturer and you, the end user. As a result many of our products are Special Order, and not in stock in our stores, meaning they ship directly to you from the factories/workshops/ateliers from around the world and most are made-to-order.
