Coming soon: I am currently working on a range of authentic, hand-carved Welsh Lovespoons.
I first made a couple of these lanterns for myself to create a gently lit, calming space during the evenings. I found them to be an effective contribution to a relaxing environment and as an environmental graduate.
I also thought they were a good way to repurpose glass - a medium that is undervalued for it's uniquely versatile, resilient and reusable properties.
The design of the lantern came naturally as the most effective way to suspend a glass container. This was partially inspired by old naval glass floats on ships, and also by considering the similarities and origins of lanterns in various cultures.
My intention was to keep it simple and practical and by doing so, allowing the elegance of lanterns to speak for themselves.
