Mykes Glass Candleholder by Giorgio Bonaguro for Driade

About the Item

"Mykes is a collection of refined handblown glass candle stands produced in three different sizes with the shape of a mushroom. Inspired by ancient Greek culture, the mushroom was considered a symbol of life endowed with divine properties. The collection relates to the courageous hero, Perseus, when he quenched his thirst with water collected in the cap of a mushroom once he became weary after a long journey. Grateful for the solace offered by nature, he decided to establish in that very site a new city called Mycene (from the Greek Mykes, which means mushroom). After studying mechanical engineering in Modena, Giorgio Bonaguro completed his training with a double masters in Industrial and interior design from the Polytechnic Design School in Milan. He has worked with various studios, such as Amdl (Michele De Lucchi) or MarCo Romanelli, where he learned the process of developing a product. He continues his personal research and collaboration with other studios and companies in various fields, including furniture, Industrial, interiors, packaging and light design. His clients include Driade, Valsecchi1918, La Lampe, Mint Gallery London, and Galleria Luisa Delle Piane.".
