The 28 pendants result from a complex glass blowing technique performed in Bocci’s glass blowing atelier in Vancouver, British Columbia whereby air pressure is intermittently introduced and then removed from the glass matrix, which is heated and then rapidly cooled. The result is a distorted spherical shape with a composed collection of inner satellites (bubbles), one of which is made of opaque white milk glass and houses a low voltage and replaceable xenon or LED lamp. 28 pendants are designed either to cluster in hexagonal shapes, where the pendants nestle into one another, or to be composed with random drop lengths in an ambient manner similar to their distant cousins the 14 series. Standard 28 pendants are blown with a clear glass exterior sphere and an opaque white interior cavity along with one to three clear satellites. The 28 series is also available in smoke grey glass and a variety of color options.
28 Design by Omer Arbel
Bocci’s 28 series is an exploration of fabrication process, which is part of Omer Arbel’s quest for specificity in manufacturing. Instead of designing form itself, here the intent was to design a system that produces form. Arbel developed a method with loose parameters that produces a different shape in every iteration of the fabrication procedure, thus every 28 created is unique from any other in existence.
Colored 28 pendants are hand blown specifically for each chandelier. The colors reflect an endless variety of mood and palette and are created in one of two formats; either with the entire outer sphere blown from colored glass, or maintaining the clarity of the exterior sphere and introducing color through the satellites only. The innovative canopy design of the 28 series allows for a modular approach where the chandelier scope is scaleable to near any application. In the arena of bespoke work, there exists endless customization options during manufacturing. From canopy shape, size and color; to chandelier composition; to pendant color and custom pendant sizing; to custom drop lengths of up to 120’, Bocci custom pieces may be calibrated to the needs of any project with astonishing impact.
