This series is made of cast glass, each piece is handmade and the resulting bubbles give the impression of the imperfection of the cast glass. The cavity of the sphere is matt cylindrical, and the halogen pin lighting creates the impression of small candles floating on water in a glass. Individually hung lights appear quite stubby, but when multiplied or hung in groups they gain many times over in charisma., The 14 is an articulated, seamed cast glass sphere with a frosted cylindrical void that houses either a low voltage (12V, 10W halogen/xenon) or LED(12V, 1.5W) lamp. Individual pendants are visually quite subtle, but gain tremendous strength when multiplied and clustered in large groups.
Light interacts with the bubbles and imperfections of the cast glass to produce a glow reminiscent of small candles floating within spheres of water. Cast glass is an organic process, imperfect by nature and each 14 is hand made; thus, every piece produced is unique.
