ZEPHYR
Stemware that makes every occasion special! You can long
for attractive wine glasses that are a little bit special, can’t
you? Glasses for festive occasions that make all occasions
festive – glasses that are extraordinarily beautiful.
My new design is based on a fine balance between form
and the beautiful art of the glassmaker. The idea was to
create light, elegant stemware that rises above the table and
showcases the drink it contains in sensually-shaped bowls. I
had a vision of the glasses being like soap bubbles, sort of
hovering on long, slim stems. The glasses are beautifully
simple. They don’t need any embellishment – they are
extraordinary just as they are.
I’m fascinated by the mouldabilty of glass. A skilled
glassmaker can blow glass so, so thinly and stretch the
stems to make them so, so tall. I gave my friends at Kosta a
challenge, which they accepted. They delivered, don’t you
think?
