About the Item

Contemporary American artist Barry Entner's Tangent Chandelier is comprised of clear textured solid glass sticks and a nickel plated steel frame. The canopy holds 5 LED round lights that shine down on the adjustable sticks as they orbit a 5"DIA steel globe. From the artist's perspective, sculptural lighting originates as a sculptural vision rather than a commercial product design. Suspending sculpture in midair allows him to create an unlimited array of forms free from the limitations of gravity. The lighting aspect is designed specifically to enhance the form, color and the magical beauty of the glass itself. He intentionally employs certain techniques to highlight the unique properties of glass. Each of Barry Entner's works has a life of its own due to visual shifts in form and color, which give the pieces movement. These effects are dependent on the perspective of the viewer and the amount of ambient light. About the artist: Barry Entner was born on November 1, 1959 in Brookline, Massachusetts. In the late 1970's, Barry attended Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, where he studied developmental psychology, cultural anthropology and philosophy. He also began to study glass sculpture under Gene Koss. After graduating from Tulane, Barry studied glass sculpture at Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina with Stephen Dee Edwards and metal sculpture at Massachusetts College of Art, Boston, Massachusetts with John Wolfrum. In 1985 he built his first studio outside of Boston. He has been working in his current studio in New York's Hudson Valley since 1997. Barry Entner's work is shown in museums, public spaces and private collections throughout the world.

Barry Entner Triangle Solids Glass Sculpture, 2014
By Barry Entner
Located in New York, NY
Contemporary American artist Barry Entner's Triangle Solids Glass Sculpture is created with consideration of each individual piece as paint strokes that, once assembled, becomes the desired composition. He doesn't make these using traditional blown glass techniques. For the past 15 years, Barry has developed a method of using steam pressure, produced by way of inserting a wet cherrywood cone into solid hot glass, to “blow” air into the pieces. This allows him to create shapes and forms that are unique within the art glass world, and are “other worldly,” as is sometimes described. This sculpture is signed and dated. Measurements below are for the total overall size; small triangle is 3.25" diameter x 19.75" height, medium triangle is 3.25" diameter x 21.75" height and large triangle is 3.25" diameter x 23" height. About the artist: Barry Entner was born on November 1, 1959 in Brookline, Massachusetts. In the late 1970s, Barry attended Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, where he studied developmental psychology, cultural anthropology and philosophy.

Modern Chandelier with Colored Glass in a Nickel Finish - Ersa Collection
By William Brand
Located in Naarden, NL
The Ersa, a modern chandelier in a nickel finish with iridescent glass spheres, is designed by William Brand, founder of Brand van Egmond. Created as the statement chandelier in the interior, this Ersa is available in three different models round, conical, and oval. Each model knows different sizes and finishes for you to discover. Custom dimensions and finishes are possible upon request. Ersa, named after the ancient Greek goddess of morning dew, draws inspiration from that most magical moment of the day: the sunrise. Early morning, when the first light of day sends the darkness of the night away, we can see one of nature’s wonders on display: dew drops formed throughout the night. Just as the change of temperature on a surface creates dew, also new finishes and materials are born under shifting conditions. The iridescence on our glass, leading to the gradual change of color as the angle of view or illumination changes, radiates a stunning glow. The Ersa Collection...
