LSA Oblate Collection
Defined by a flattened spherical body and a pillar stem that locates precisely into a hollow walnut base, Oblate is a collection of mouth-blown vessels where two materials carry the design. The combination of clean glassy forms above and rich organic timber below gives each piece its mixed-material character - the smoothness of mouth-blown glass contrasted against the grain of dark walnut. Versatile and expertly crafted, Oblate pieces serve variously as vases, lanterns, planters or decorative bowls, with the flattened spherical shape lending itself equally to flowers, candles, small succulents or displayed collections. Each glass vessel is produced by skilled European glassblowers, while the walnut bases are turned and hollowed by timber specialists to receive the pillar stem securely. Walnut is a dense, dark European hardwood whose grain reads richly against the clean glass forms, and its weight gives the composition real stability. Oblate is for homes that value mixed-material craft and the contrast between industrial-precise glass and natural grainy timber.
