Flos 2097 Chandelier

The Flos 2097 Chandelier, designed by Gino Sarfatti, is a multi-arm suspension chandelier that reinterprets a classic form through minimalist exposed bulbs and structural lines. The range is noted for its tiered, radiating arms and a deliberate contrast between polished metal and matte details.

Formally the 2097 relies on thirty horizontal arms arranged across several tiers to create a balanced, voluminous silhouette and a broad 360° light distribution. It is offered in a choice of appearance finishes: Matt Black, Chrome and Brass, and with either Clear or Frosted glass options.

Construction follows the original intent: a central steel stem with brass arms and a matching steel ceiling fitting and rose. Each arm terminates in a black socket and the design intentionally exposes the wiring as a graphic detail, which contributes to its modern industrial-chic character.

Light is delivered by multiple small, tubular lamps mounted on the thirty sockets to produce diffused ambient illumination suitable for large rooms and high-ceiling spaces. The tiered layout and numerous lamp positions ensure even coverage rather than a single focussed beam.

The fitting is suspended using a thin support wire together with a separate power cord; the ceiling rose and steel fitting provide the mounting interface. The fixture carries an IP20 rating for internal use and has a two-year manufacturer warranty. Confirm lamp type and dimming compatibility at specification stage if these details are critical to your project.
