By Goldkant Leuchten, Friedel Wauer
Located in The Hague, NL
Stunning atmospheric tripod Cocoon floorlamp. Elegant, timeless and it blends with lost of interior styles. It's in a very good condition, both chrome and lampshade. Designer Friedel Wauer, was a pioneering German lampshade manufacturer and designer, widely recognized as the "grandfather of cocoon lamps". Company: Wauer founded the company Goldkant-Leuchten (initially named Cocoon-Leuchten International) in Germany in 1946. The company operated until 1994.
