BEHIND THE DESIGN: Handmade blown glass pendant lights & HOW THEY ARE MADE
The captivating qualities of artisan glass make it ideal for decorative lighting. As a design material, glass provides a limitless platform for innovation because it combines light, form, texture and color in a single medium. It’s also ideally suited to today’s interiors.
