Flos Parentesi String Light Sphere Head

£269.00 GBP

Sphere-headed component from Flos Parentesi — oversized R125 globe on a slender cable for ambient string installations. IP20.

Use a large frosted R125 globe for soft diffusion
Integrate into continuous tensioned string runs
Choose Nickel, Red, Black or White finishes
Specify slim architectural cable for graphic effect
Supply-ready for standard E27 mains lampholders

Flos Parentesi String Light Sphere Head is a component from the Parentesi string-light family, designed for ambient suspended runs. The piece pairs a classic, oversized R125-style globe with a minimalist suspension, intended to function as a single suspended light in a continuous layout.

The design uses a very slim, architectural cable and a compact socket assembly so the cord becomes a considered graphic element in the space. This component is offered in Nickel, Red, Black and White finishes and can be specified in multiple cable-length options.

Construction highlights include the large frosted R125 globe for soft, even diffusion and a neat socket detail that routes the cable cleanly through the body. The slim cable profile supports tensioned or anchored runs where the cord itself defines the installation geometry.

Light output is ambient and diffuse: the frosted R125 lamp provides broad, gentle illumination suited to linear or sculptural string arrangements rather than focussed task lighting. The product is intended to be used as part of a continuous string installation and performs as a single suspended light source within that system.

Installation notes: the sphere head is supplied for mains E27 lampholders and is shown with a 1 x LED R125 13W E27 220–240V 2700K lamp in the technical specification. IP20 rating means it is for indoor use only. Warranty is two years. Specify cable length and finish to suit the project and confirm mounting and tensioning details during installation.

Lighting Design Online recommends the Parentesi Sphere Head when you want a calm, design-led ambient statement that reads clearly in an interior. The component’s considered form and reliable Italian engineering make it straightforward to specify for renovation or new-build projects, helping you achieve the right outcome with clarity and assurance.
