Description

The Lentium Lamp, one of two new Roman and Williams Guild Original Designs, marks Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer’s first exploration of the deep traditions of cast glass and metal in lighting. Both new forms—Lentium Sconce and Lentium Lamp—are named for and inspired by lens-like objects used across artistic and industrial mediums to focus and defocus light beams.

Following Alesch and Standefer’s original prototypes, the Lentium is cast entirely by hand to feature rich texture, forging, machining, and tooling. The semi-cylindrical shades are entrusted to a studio, where master artisans employ fire and breath to capture the thick, bubbled glass and ideal illumination. Tugging at threads of American industrialization and the dawn of Italian glass art, the new, original Lentium collection delivers a narrative beyond time and place.
