At LZF, wood has been the staple of every lamp we have imagined, designed, and crafted. Enveloping light, our natural wood veneers shine with vitality and emanate warmth. In recent years, with a curious mind, we began exploring other materials, seeking new ways to complement our veneers. Glass was perhaps an obvious choice, however we were keen to probe the boundaries of what was possible with this medium. We worked with both Mayice and accomplished glass-blowing artisan Eduard Garuti, to realise three new designs: Eris, Dune, and Estela.
Throughout human history, glass has been used to encapsulate many objects, liquids, and light. When designing Eris, Dune, and Estela, Mayice imagined LZF´s wood veneer in the form of a cylinder, enveloped in a transparent, hand-blown borosilicate glass layer. With three different glass shapes, Mayice created three individual atmospheres. LZF and Mayice believe in a dialogue between technology and craft. With Eris, Dune, and Estela, we found a perfect balance between light, glass, and wood.
