Atelier George Wall Light Eclipse in Blown Glass

About the Item

This blown glass sconce named Eclipse, is part of the Aube collection by Atelier George produced in 2020. It is a combination of two different shapes of circles : one flat and the other dimensional. Each piece is unique because it is blown by the artist, a certificate of authenticity is issued by the gallery. Dimensions: Diameter 9.83", length: 3.93". The two designers and glassblowers, Eve and Laurent, have been working together since 2012 and producing glass tiles, lighting, and decorative objects. Originally trained as a designer, Eve grew up and studied in Paris. After completing a bachelor’s degree at the Boulle School and completing a higher education cycle at ENSCI-Les Ateliers, she decided to learn various glass-making techniques, including glassblowing, to give a concrete form to some of her ideas. “I felt I had to practice a craft to keep my creative process going,” she says. In June 2018, Eve George received the Prize for Young Art Creation, a French national award for young artisans, selected for their artistic and technical skills. That same year, she was also a finalist for the Grand Prix de la Création (Paris, France) and the International Competition for Artistic Creation and Design (Milan, Italy). Her work has been featured in various contemporary glass exhibitions in France and Europe and at Dubai Design Week and the Jeunes Marchands show at Sotheby’s Paris. By working together on a project, “Glass Sheets”, they started to work together. In the first project, Eve made folded paper origami, shaped like molds, and Laurent blew into them. Subsequently, they launched their first Atelier George collection, the Interior Objects.
