those lights are beautiful!
regarding the lights, i googled for a swedish-to-english translator, and here is a very ROUGH translation (keep in mind online translators are not perfect):
When man mould blows platens to be formed the the part's completed item in the mould and part's a “coat” above the mould. The coat is not recycled without is thrown after slowing been cooled of and been blasted loose from the item in the mould. The sheep a natural, heavy dropping mould with comfortable irregular elements which does each coat unique. I have taken two coats and attached together them with a considerable rubber tied and thickset in a lamp on. The result becomes an atmosphere creating spirit, resource greedy illustration with an own unique expression.
There is som much to translate, is there anything in particular you want to know more about? I can always help!
The text to the lamps is in short a description of that the lamps are made of the leftovers after glasblowing. When a piece of glas is made there is always a cone of glas left over. He has used two of these cones, put them togheter with rubberbands and put a lamp in them.
Soooo lovely!! Where can I find those fantastic things?
New design-lamps on his side!!! WOW!/solo
