Know that this is being posted not to make you blow any furnishing budget you might or might not have, but because it’s so wierdly pretty there’s really no choice in the matter.
“The Murano glass diffusers of Barber Osgerby’s “Supernova” test the ability of even the best glass-blowers; it is very difficult to produce a hand-blown piece of glass in this diameter with uniform color and thickness.
Each module is filled with clear Swarovski crystals to form a refracting layer. With a light source inserted above the layer of crystals, the chandelier produces soft up-light through the glass and refracted down-light through the convex crystal base.”
