For centuries, glassblowers on the island of Murano passed down their expertise strictly through the generations, keeping their magic to themselves. But in recent years, thankfully, those master craftsmen have come to embrace and be embraced by a young wave of American glass artisans eager to reinterpret history. Such a joyous exchange was among the inspirations for Paradise, a sprawling sculptural cascade of textured globes (blown by Brooklyn-based Michiko Sakano and Vetro Vero studio in Pennsylvania) on a network of large-link brass chains that drape as gracefully as a necklace.
Throughout, opaque and translucent cones, cylinders, spheres and diamonds poke out at vertiginous angles, and slender polished pins add an edge of dangerous glamour. Using an innovative, labor-intensive technique, textile artist Taryn Urushido crochets the electrical wires invisibly through heavy handmade brass chains, rendering Paradise’s subtle illumination even more miraculous. In addition to an array of standard models, small-scale pendants and sconces, Paradise by Lindsey Adelman was designed to be endlessly customizable: it can twist and torrent down the well of an open circular staircase or dance endlessly across the ceiling.
Drawing from an innovative palette of materials, these lights are crafted with an irrational level of collaboration in New York City with help from a long-standing network of American suppliers. They are born from countless hours of sketching and prototyping, many dirty hands, and a passion for rigorous industrial design. With proper care, they should last forever!
