Pendants & Chandeliers
82 — 83
Growing Vases was
created by the Tokyo-
based Nendo design
studio, which has received
numerous international
awards for its fresh
perspective on design.
The Growing Vases
light sculpture radiates
the beauty of nature
in an exquisite array
of abstract flowers.
Each glass bulb is blown
from a thin steel pipe.
However, instead of
separating the glass
from the pipe, it is fused
together, as if frozen
in that moment. More
pipes are added and
lacquered. They become
flowers and branches
sprouting from their
amorphous vases. When
lit, the chandelier gives off
an ephemeral halo, lifting
the spacial experience
to one reminiscent of
a lush meadow filled with
wildflowers.
