This piece was born from the production, at the beginning of the 1960s, of wall sconces by valencian artisans from organic materials such as reeds, rattan and cane; hence its name “junco”. Subsequently, the architect josep antoni coderch i de sentmenat, who worked together with federico correa and alfonso milá, reissued this piece, improving the play of light through superimpositions and shadows, and offered it to his clients. The manufacturing of this part took place for years at mlb coderch.
what is striking is the way of working the rattan, which, split longitudinally in half, is worked in reverse and in a spiral, leaving the inner fiber of the rattan visible and subtly hiding the light bulb inside the part. It has an upper hook and two lower legs to provide stability against the wall.
masterpieces of the architect such as the disa or cister suspension lamps were added to this rattan piece, becoming very famous and popular at that time.

today there are new reissues of this piece, but the piece featured in this ad is an original from the 1960s.

note: each piece is handmade, so the size and shape of each one may vary from several millimeters to 1 or 2 centimeters. Some of the pieces have been repaired, and may have traces of varnish.
