The story
Inspired by nature’s most delicate moments, its organic shapes evoke the serene movement of autumn leaves or flower petals drifting through the air. The remarkable qualities of the material ensure that no two segments are alike, making each one a unique work of art. The diverse forms, sizes, and arrangements of the glass shard offer endless creative possibilities.
The installation showcases a combination of transparent and opal glass. The glass is available in thirteen colour variants: triplex opal, grey, brown, cognac, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, amber, light pink, orange, red and transparent.
The segments are suspended via discreet openings that allow for a variety of angles depending on the overall design concept. They are either smooth or feature a textured finish, and bespoke shapes and sizes can be created on request. Thanks to the distinctive nature of BROKISGLASS and special melting and fusing techniques, each segment is unmistakably original.
Petal sizes
The Bloom concept consists of levitating segments with shapes evoking autumn leaves or flower petals.
There are four Bloom sizes/shapes, each featuring three systematically arranged suspension openings (the smallest has only one). These allow for up to six different hanging positions.
The dimensions of individual segments are given in the pictogram, but these values should be taken as approximate only. Each piece is an original — unique in texture, surface, thickness, and overall dimensions. Due to the nature of the material and the production process, it is not possible to create identical copies. For the same reason, any deviation from the values indicated in the pictogram is considered part of the collection’s character and is not grounds for a product defect claim.
BLOOM segments are made from flat material approximately 6 mm thick. The final piece may show slight variations in thickness depending on how the glass settles during production.
The average weight of a single segment is approximately:
- XS – 50g
- S – 70g
- M – 100g
- L – 190g
The texture is always unique and depends on many factors, such as the fraction of glass shards, their orientation, distribution, and the chosen decor. It is a one-of-a-kind material, with each piece a genuine original.
Available either without decor (smooth surface) or with a striped decor created by the double-sided imprint of the mould surface during the slumping/polishing process. The variant with decor stands out more distinctly on crystal glass than in combinations with Triplex Opal (white).
Bloom is available either in a glossy version (front side) with a natural finish on the back, or with a matte coating on both sides.
The sides/edges of Bloom are finished by polishing. This gentle edge polishing creates a slight rounding and a smooth, glossy side surface. As a result, the edge is not matte but shiny. The polishing takes place simultaneously with the slumping process.
The back side of Bloom segments subtly mirrors the surface of the mould onto which the glass settles during production.
