LightCo is bringing the SIRU Lighting collection of Italian mouth blown glass light pendants down under, with four styles and bespoke designs.
It’s in the always-interesting context of Venice’s lagoon that SIRU is born, with a long held a focus on designing and crafting striking lamps with traditional glassmaking processes.
The techniques used in the SIRU design and manufacturing process have been handed down from generation to generation of glass enthusiasts to ensure the authenticity of these beautiful and unique pieces remains true to its Murano Island artisan heritage.
Housing the delicate, blown glassware are wire frames, crafted using steel alloy materials, into which the molten glass is guided. The glass is then mouth blown until reaching and protruding past the openings of the frames. This technique ensures that whilst the frames will be exactly the same, no two fittings will ever be identical due to the nature of this craft and technique.
SIRU is featured in the newly updated LightCo showroom with four different styles on display.
Terra: A shape modeled on the planet’s rotation, with iron laments resembling meridians and parallels.
Lanterna: A long and soft shaped lamp with a Japanese twist.
Segni: The pure SIRU combination of glass and metal, available in two sizes 60 and 79cm.
Nuage: The frame of a moment, metal circles slipping and a blown glass sphere holding them in mid-air.
Thanks to a long and wide and experience SIRU can also make bespoke models, meeting specific customer requests.
SIRU’s design solutions are the result of a synthesis of the concepts of tradition and contemporary perspective, marking the first step in an evolutionary and ambitious path of a company that enjoys reinventing itself.
