Mussels Pendant Light - Cluster of 12

By Václav Mlynář

“Shells, and particularly mussels, always fascinated me with their simple, yet sophisticated, shape. Each is an original but together they form interesting compositions. They carry a sense of elegance and organic nature, as well as a bit of mystery.” -Václav Mlynář

Elegance, variability and an organic aesthetic, BOMMA introduces new MUSSELS collection. Imagine sparkling water hiding fascinating, incredibly detailed mussels. Two crystal shells surround a light source nested in a precise mounting within either glossy anthracite or brushed gold tones. The glass shell carries a rippling patterned imprint. When lit, it creates the effect of light reflecting from a water surface. Its inspiration in organic shapes, natural colors and the natural environment is apparent at first glance.

The collection includes individual glass components shaped like shells that
form a vertical group composed of six, twelve, or eighteen light units, clustered
together to evoke how mussels appear in their natural environment. These
individual components may also be installed separately, but through their
grouping dramatic lighting installations are possible with dozens or even hun-
dreds of pieces. These lighted constellations become a focal point, a jewel in
any interior.

The Mussels Collection is made by the BOMMA in-house developed, pressed glass
technology. Any small bubbles, non-melts and irregularities in the glass are both proof and a characteristic feature of this unique glassmaking process. The glass parts of Mussels are hand-painted, so the intensity of color may vary slightly.
