The Distinctive Character of Textured Glass

The use of glass in light fixtures has been popular for so long that it’s barely worth mentioning as a ‘trend.’ However, add a new wrinkle to the glass and you experience a whole different level of design ingenuity. The designers at Hudson Valley Lighting and Corbett Lighting have each introduced products that make use of innovative glass-blowing techniques to produce fixtures of extraordinary beauty. Here are a few of their newest offerings for your editorial consideration:

The cascading, icicle-like curls of Mont Blanc’s handmade Venetian glass offer a stunning display of light
Clustered together by handcrafted iron arcs, no two individual textured glass rods look the same, contributing to the organic, icy feel of the piece
Horizontally patterned silver leaf trim adds a sense of motion when viewing the dazzling pendant, giving the viewer a different perspective from any angle
Collection offered as a thirteen-, nine- or seven-light pendant, a two- or three-light sconce and a five-light semi-flush
