Design and production

The four elements of glass art

The collection of four "elements" was a great challenge for the creator, the glassworks and the owners. This collection is not a decorative object or a mere applied art. It goes much further, higher and deeper. Jiri Suhajek, the author of this quartet, used the mysterious alexandrite, underlaid by other transparent or opal tones, to remind in a unique way the elements, the basic building blocks of life, and thus pay tribute to the miracle of evolution. We are very honoured to have been able to participate in this project.

• Hand-blown from environmentally friendly lead-free crystal
• Hand cut and polished to a high gloss
• Made using the glass underlay technique
